Choinski could have won this match . You cant blow 7 break points in two games . So it might be creditable to get back to two sets all but a loss is a loss .
Dang - good effort and with qualifying he should be proud of his efforts.
Anyone know where his ranking will go - outside the top 200 still?
Fair bit off the top 200 still. Showing as live ranked 229 on 239 points ( after 40 points from here ) with live ranked 200 on 283 points. Still of course with all the further points players will add before the next rankings up date in 2 weeks time.

Oh well, step in right direction though - thanks Indy.
Yup, Jan had the momentum, and missing 7 break points in his opponent's first 2 service games of the final set was crucial. Carballes hadn't won a hard court match this summer so a decent draw.
L128: Zhang Zhizhen (CHN) WR 41 (CH = 31 last month) vs (25) Jack Draper WR 25 (= CH)
Jack may have had a bit of a tough time of it since Cinci (cf. BBC article posted on his dedicated thread), but it looks as though FAA, the 19th seed here, may have suffered as well: he lost earlier to the 18-year-old Czech, Jakub Mensik (WR 65), by 2, 4 & 2!
Zhang Zhizhen is struggling here. He's just had the trainer out (knee problem) and dropped the second set to love. I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't finish the match
