Looks like Ward is gonna have to win a round or 2 at Wimbledon to break that career high!

Ah well, but the rankings do tell the story that James and Dan had to be at or very near their absolute best and their opponents quite some way below their best for upsets to be possible.

But they've both had good wins here and look in decent form, so onward.

Anderson was always going to be a really difficult matchup for Mr Evans. Nice work from Mr Ward.

From the moment Dan lost his opening service game he was always really up against it. You just can't do that against a guy like Anderson.

Just watching Stepanek v Anderson and listening to Bouncy asking why more Brits don't go down the US college route. Someone should send him Optimists meticulously prepared list of about 170 Brits on tennis scholarships in the US.
