The first of the age group European Championships has two British boys highly seeded, hoping to go one better than Scott Watson, a finalist two years ago.  Mila Angrave won her opening match today, so all 4 Brits (maximum allowed for most nations) are into round 2, the other 3 having byes.

Liam has guaranteed at least a bronze medal, but to get silver or gold he will need to beat the top seed Richard Mitchell, who he lost to in Les Petits As (Mitchell went on to reach the final). Oskar lost out in singles but has reached the doubles final with Liam. Tomorrow Liam is first on Centre at 9am BST (stream available via link in top post) with the doubles final third

A lot to like in Liam's game - I enjoy watching him

He put up a very good show against the top seed today but the score was fair (Liam lost 6-3 7-6)

Liam showed resiliience in breaking back twice when the top seed served for the match, but lost out in the second set tiebreak. His body language on losing points was often not helpful in the bits I saw.

(1) Richard Mitchell (SUI) d. (3) Liam Sharkey 6-3 7-6(4)
