BRITISH tennis fans cried "double fault" yesterday as Katie Boulter lost at Wimbledon - then her Aussie boyfriend knocked out fellow Brit Liam Broady.
Katie, 25, admitted she felt "emotionally drained" after losing in just 51 minutes, four days after her gran died.
She had won the nation's hearts after beating 2021 finalist Karolina Pliskova on Thursday emotionally dedicating that win to gran Jill, who she revealed had died aged 83 just 48 hours earlier.
