At least Evan has broken into the top 1000 - don't be surprised if he takes out the top seed

indiana · Tennis legend

I certainly will be surprised if Evan beats the top seed. Hope he does though get what would be a really good win.

Coup Droit · Tennis legend

Prepare to be surprised, Indy?

Evan has taken the first set 6-3....

Jaggy1876 · Grand Slam Champion

6-3, 5-4 and 30-30. 2 points from victory. Can he do it?

Coup Droit · Tennis legend

You might have followed better than me, Jaggy, but I saw at least one MP in the tie-break. Probably more?

But Evan ends up losing the TB 8-10 :::(((

indiana · Tennis legend

Evan had a total of 3 MPs in the TB. 2 From 6-4* and a third at 7-6*.

And yes, I have been surprised. Stick with it, Evan !

Sadly, not to be:

L16: (1) Aldin Setkic (BIH) WR 201 defeated by 3-6 7-6(8) 6-1

Seems to have run out of steam in that deciding set. hmm

paulisi · Tennis legend

Evan is getting back to where he should be - top 500 with a full season.
He will pick up a few much higher ranked players on route.
Just needs a couple of nice draws to boost his points and thus his ranking.
