Evans win 6-4 in final set

Very well done taking out a seed

Will now play Evgeny Donskoy in next round (Mens rank 822) Juniors rank 46. matches with Brits include a 3 set win over Daniel Cox 2 weeks ago but also a loss to Timothy Knight in January and straight sets loss to Slabba last November

Yes! Dan went 0-40 down on his serve, but battled it out to hold and take the match! 

Well done. This lad seems to be a fighter.

Johanna Konta lost the first set 4-6 from 4-1 up. Several long delays so wonder if she is injured.

I wonder if there's a reoccurence of the problems she was suffering at Bonfiglio. confused.gif

Some rain would be lovely now. I see that play has been suspended on some courts.

Jo lost the second 5-7.


Humbug. cry.gif The person to whom this tournament mattered the most lost an easy (at least on paper - it's never easy to beat a local player in a Slam) match. Hope she's fine and surely she'll be back in Offenbach.

As expected, Smethers is struggling in his match against Ramirez: 2-4 down in the first set.
Edit: spoke too soon - Smethers has broken back *3-4

Dan III has broken back.  I think he's got a chance in this match, though he's obviously the underdog.

Damn. After having multiple break points at 4-4, Smethers has lost the first set 6-4.
