That point at 4-3 was gold

Absolutely took the stuffing out of Young.

And, yes, I went big time

- put on 2 x 10p on Dan in the TB, at 2.2 - don't spend it all at once, CD.....

My Bet365 account only has £1 and that still works for me.
Nice straight sets victory for Mr Evans.

Dan's reward is defending champion Tiafoe

But I can't find out how to get the livestream to full-screen

I can only get full screen on my iPhone or IPad (just by stretching the screen with two fingers , not on my desk top computer though.

On my laptop, I just go to the 'live streaming' tab in the top right which then brings up another window and then I zoom in to 250% using the magnifier and then maximise the window to make it full screen and works really well.

Thanks for the tips. My laptop died on Friday, so I was watching on my main pc with a window about 4" wide. I'll try on my tablet next time as well.

As for Dan, Tiafoe is the worst of the 4 places where he could have landed and it's a tough drraw, but at least he is in it. Plus, 'Big Foe' lost in straight sets to Jason Jung in NY last week so it should be a good test and if he can win, he'll have a WC or fellow Q in the next round.

Dan beat tiafoe last match, albeit in November 2015!

Anyone know the where tiafoe would rank compared to the highest ranked Dan has beaten, if he manage to win of course

Nix · Futures level

Dan beat both Dominic Thiem, then WR 8 and Marin Cilic WR 7, in 2017 in Sydney and Australian Open respectively. He also beat Nishikori, then WR 12 in the US Open in 2013.

His closest near-miss I think was the US Opem in 2016 where he took Wawrinka, then WR3 to five sets. On his day he can definitely cause a top 20 upset. Just not quite sure if he's back to his absolute best yet. But would love to see it.

Slow start from Evo.

I'm watching on Bet365 - perfect quality, don't think I've ever had a better one from that POV, but there is literally no sound - no crowd, umpire noise etc, so it's very weird. It's like someone has muted it - is that the same for anyone else?
