Liam Broady 10 Fast Facts, Bio, Wiki
Broady, the younger brother of fellow tennis player Naomi Broady, has another sister, Emma and a brother, Calum. The family grew up in Heaton Chapel, Stockport. Their parents, Shirley and Simon, took the young Liam and Naomi to tennis tournaments. Broady started playing table tennis at the age of four and went to Matchpoint in Bramhall for lessons. His first tournament was at the age of eight and he showed potential at ten. He attended Norris Bank primary and Priestnall School where he completed his GCSEs in 2010. In 2007, the Lawn Tennis Association suspended his seventeen-year-old sister Naomi’s funding, for ‘unprofessional’ postings on a social networking site. Their father Simon was so angry with the decision that he withdrew Liam, then aged thirteen, from the LTA programme. Simon sold the family home and downsized to a modest red brick terrace to fund their travel and coaching. Two weeks later, the LTA offered to restore their funding, but Simon refused, and they trained at the Mouratoglou Tennis Academy on the outskirts of Paris. In 2012, Broady decided to accept help from the LTA, leading to his estrangement from his father, and they did not speak to each other for several years. When Liam returned to Stockport, he stayed with his sister Emma. In November 2015, Broady ended his LTA funding to heal the rift with his father, and he now funds himself, renting his own flat in the Heatons, Stockport. Broady trained at the Northern Tennis Club, David Lloyd Fitness and Life Leisure by Broadstone Mill. Broady played Davis Cup for the 2018 tie against Spain, while Naomi Broady has declined to play Fed Cup for Great Britain. In late 2016 he moved his training base to the University of Bath and is currently coached by Dave Sammel. Broady is an avid Manchester City F.C. fan.
