Does Tim have an ongoing issue with Dan or is he just trying to motivate him?.

I see Evo drops a place in live rankings, as Raonic gains more than Dan. If Evo beats Raonic next he takes the spot back. Motivation.

 Or just giving his opinion in answer to a question.

I've never been Tim's greatest fan but it doesn't seem an at all unreasonable opinion.

Of course, it will be tremendous if Dan ever does make the top 10. And if going out to prove Tim wrong is any additional spur, all good.

 Neither. I was watching, and I think that the question took Mr Henman by surprise: it appeared that he wanted to be supportive, but not over confident. Hence the long pause, whilst he tried to frame an inoffensive but not over-optimistic reply. He acknowledged that "Top 20 realistic, Top 10 a stretch" may be seen by Mr Evans as motivational, though.

I'm not sure which is worse, that sort of desperate-to-be-honest reply or the "of course number one is the aspiration for everyone" claptrap that you get from some.

Not many players could beat Raonic when he's serving like that. 23 aces in 11 service games.

Similar issues to those faced by Kyle and Cam yesterday.  Huge server on fast courts.

Can't see any reason why Raonic wouldn't play, so must be Felix (who's out of the singles) who has withdrawn.
