Horrible draw on clay for Billy, tough to see him winning that one but hes surprised before!

He made the quarters of the French in 2016 and the Monte Carlo final in 2017. along with 4 250 titles on clay.... one as recently as 2022. Definitely a very tough draw!

The guy is 37 !

Ramos' claim to fame are all from a long time ago - even the 2022 one mentioned above is a long time ago - and most are almost 7 or 8 or 9 years ago 

Billy has taken the second set and is not playing out of his skin at all 

Ramos, not surprisingly, looked a little fresher in the first set

Maybe he'll get a second wind but hopefully not

Billy's been a break up most of the third set

But just had a tiny falter and Ramos has got it back to 4-4

Billy rather bottled that, I'm afraid

A couple of bad backhand misses in the final game, a daft dropshot, a wild forehand

There was tons of good stuff too - but the set was in his hands and he tightened up, without Ramos really doing anything - apart from SEEING that Billy was tightening up

Pity for Billy. It certainly wasn't the easiest of draws for the #1 seed but yes maybe arguable how tough and he got himself into a winning position.

Re the ongoing top 100 thingy he would have probably needed to reach the final here to have had a chance this week ( theoretical chance with a SF ). As the Miami fortnight and challengers shook out he was in retrospect very close to being top 100 in the current rankings. He is WR 103 on 580 points, WR 100 is on 592 points. If Billy had won his 3 set MD R1 match vs Spizziri he would have had 20 more points taking him to 600 points. So, all else being equal ...

He is now live ranked 104 and if he moves further this week, it can now clearly only be one way. He still though has a window before the grass season. But he needs to push that possibly tighening window open.

Well done to Jan on clinching that win, just as Billy was losing his match.
