RE: Week 25 - ATP 500 - HSBC Championships - The Queen's Club, London, Great Britain (grass)


L32:  (WC) Daniel Evans WR 199 defeated (7) Frances Tiafoe (USA) WR 13 by 5 & 2  biggrin 

Easy peasy!  That was rather enjoyable.  smile  Some long rallies!  Noisy buggers, the pair of them, though, & pretty silly shorts Tiafoe was wearing.  Nakashima or Mpetshi Perricard in the last 16.

Brilliant !

Dan is SO light on his feet on grass- just skips over the court - it's a joy when it's firing

How wonderful! Lovely to watch the second set. Evo was a little emotional at the end as well, and rightly so! Life in the old dog yet!!

Was a bit baffled by the on-court interview comment "I didn't realise he was top 20 though I knew he was very good", unless it was a bit of banter towards Tiafoe.

But well done Evo! As always, predictable only by your unpredictability.

 I think they get on well, so thought it was a bit of banter. I think Dan knew v well how high Frances is ranked!!

I haven't seen Meník play since Miami although we know he hasn't been passed the quarters in anything since.

L32:  (8) Jakub Mensik (CZE) WR 17 defeated (WC) Cameron Norrie WR 61 by 7-6(6) 1-6 6-1  cry

Oh, what might have been:  Cam had a set point in the first set tie-break, but couldn't convert it.  cry
