I think that is Liams first Main draw win at this level(CH75) or higher since St Tropez in September 2024.has won a CH50 match in that time. But good to see.

Thats a disappointing result, although Kukushkin is vastly experienced.

It feels like Billy had a false rebirth a month or two back when he took the title, and has struggled again since.

What is Billy's coaching situation now? He has won just shy of $600k this year, plus presumably some on top for sponsorship etc, I hope he might be able to put some of that back into good advice?
