C'mon Danny boy!

Has he ever won from 2 sets down, anyone know?


 I think he did in a Davis Cup tie ( vs Russia? ) 

Scurries off to try and check ... 


And not this 2013 Davis Cup tie. GB did come back in matches from 0-2 to win 3-2. But Dan won the deciding match vs Donskoy in straight sets.

Great service game for Dan, playing really cleverly and progressively - some would say entrepreneurial tennis.

L32:  (24) Daniel Evans WR 27 defeated Alexei Popyrin (AUS) WR 73 by 4-6 3-6 6-3 6-4 7-6(1)

Phew animated emoticon  $64,000 question:  would he have made it, had other Grand Slam fifth set "solutions" been in play?

*****

L16:  (24) Daniel Evans WR 27 vs (2) Daniil Medvedev (RUS) WR 2 (= CH)
