Not sure why Marcus's opponent has dropped his rank from 122 to 701 within 12 months. Their match about to start.
Just looking at his activity he was out for over 9 months until this July. Hasn't looked as if he's been great since he came back, but it's mainly his ranking just being based on a few months.
Polansky was pretty clear favourite on bet365 before the match started and having won the second set and held after a long 16 point first game of the final set went back to again 1/3 on.
Marcus : 6-4 2-6 *0-1
