HADY HABIB was happy to bring some good news to battle-scarred Lebanon after a historic victory at the Australian Open today.
The 26-year-old’s 7-6 (4) 6-4 7-6 (6) win over China’s Bu Yunchaokete made him the first man representing the country to win a grand slam main draw match in the Open era.
“It’s a huge win,” said Habib, who won three matches in qualifying to reach the main draw.
