2 match points come and go having 15-40 on the Fognini serve. Great play from Evo brings up a third....Saved! Another sensational lob from Evo brings up a forth... Saved, cracking winner by Fognini... Another match point (number 5) set up by a great forhand down the line... SAVED! First match point thats been an unforced error from Dan

You guessed it another match point! And hes done it!!!!!!!!! Great appreciation from the crowd. Fognini with a poor handshake and not great sportmanship Evo no to happy about that

What a win!!

What fun

And obviously Dan's got the needle slightly with Foggy - who shook hands, turning away, and refused to do the little 'pat back' routine, with Dan throwing his hands up, going like who does he think he is.

But the tennis spoke - and Dan won !!!

 Bad day for Cilic who looks a shadow of himself but great scalp for Joe and Rajeev. Sadly, Joe has slipped back to live 5 in the rankings and I dont think can get higher this week but  these two are proving to still be one of the form pairs in this early first two months of the season

Thats helpful to Dan, I would fancy beating Herbert handily

What did you say to yourself when you were down in the second set?

Evans: Stay out here. There are worse ways to earn a living.

Fair point.

Worth noting Evo is sat at 18 in the live race, probably not far off his current playing ranking
