Two men in the top 10 bowed out of Wimbledon on Thursday.
No. 4 seed Casper Ruud and top-ranked American Taylor Fritz lost their second-round matchups in five sets despite holding early leads over opponents well below them in the ATP rankings.
Britain’s Liam Broady, ranked 142nd in the world, stormed back from a 2-1 deficit to record a stunning 6-4, 3-6, 4-6, 6-3, 6-0 victory over two-time French Open finalist Ruud in front of an adoring crowd on Centre Court.
Broady will face Canadian No. 26 seed Denis Shapovalov in the third round.
