was thrilled when i saw the result, especially seing he won a tie break, but as a looked through the thread, it seems to be the same old story, but atleast he got the win, against a player ranked 50+ places above him. Cleary the talent is there with the amount of breaks he can conjure, but his height may be a massive issue in his career
well he's about 5'11 so where's the height issue ??
although he's not massive by tennis standards, there are many below 6 foot who are in the top 100.
Agassi, Davydenko, Hewitt, Chang, Clement, Santoro, Kohlschreiber and many, many more have all done very well for themselves despite being around 5'10.
Ben Becker is 5'9 but can serve 140mph plus.
Evo's lack of serve power is possibly technical or maybe he needs to put on extra muscle, either way its something he will develop over the next few years
