Michael Loyd took out some of the biggest names in the game on the World Championship stage. The 21-seed topped Ben Johns, JW Johnson, and Quang Duong in three consecutive days. Based on DUPR, he had a 1% chance to escape the round of 16.
We talked about how he devised a winning strategy and how an attitude change has let him be himself on the court.
