American Chris Eubanks delivered a stunning upset over the men’s British No. 1 Cameron Norrie in the second round of Wimbledon. Eubanks, who is making his Wimbledon debut, will play Australian Christopher O’Connell next.
“By far the biggest win of my career. By far. Not even a question,” Eubanks said in his on-court interview. “There’s tons of really good tennis players who play professional tennis who never get the chance to play the number one Brit at Wimbledon, in an atmosphere like this. It didn’t even matter how many people cheered for me, or against me.
This is something I’ll never forget for the rest of my life.”This is a guy who before this week had never gotten past the second round of a grand slam before and a couple of weeks ago was texting the three-time US Open champion Kim Clijsters for advice on how to play on grass. Eubanks is one of the most popular players on the tour and is rocketing up the rankings at the age of 27.
