Since switching on Evans has barely won a point. Sigh.

Dan nets the return on the 1st point of the game, and can't quite stretch far enough to get a forehand to land in so its 30-0. Nice backhand up the line from Dan and his opponent nets, before a super forehand up the line produces a nice, easy volley for Evo for 30-30. Another good forehand into the corner from Dan and Tiafoe goes wide to yield BP. 1st surge into the net, and a sliced return pass up the line hits the corner.
Evo breaks, *5-3

And then Evo rattles off four points in a row to break, sealing it with a chipped return winner down the line.

*5-3.

Dan hits another beauty up the line on the backhand, Tiafoe punts a backhand long and Dan is 2 points away...
Great change of direction followed by a forehand winner and it's 3 MPs

Dan finished with an ace!!!

Yes Evo! Really enjoyed that, he looks back to his best and I'm excited for what 2016 will bring.
What a day!! Have 2 British men ever won challenger titles in the same week before?
