Jack winning felt to me like the arrival of Becker back in 85. I know Becker was less well known then than maybe Jack is, but it feels like a coming out win, I'm here and I'm going to be big.

I hope he sees the title through and then goes deep at Wimbledon, we all do - but wouldnt it be amazing!

As I feared:

L16:  (Q) Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard (FRA) WR 67 (CH = 66 last month) vs (WC) Billy Harris WR 162

So far, so good.   One set down, one to go.    Billy's making me look silly - not that it takes much!

What an amazing day for the Brits at Queen's:

And on his Queen's Centre Court debut, too!

I know I have always believed that there was something to Billy's game, but never in my wildest dreams did I think I would be hearing the words ...

... Billy Harris - Queens Quarter Finalist

Wow.
