Truly chuffed for Dan! Really enjoyed his match. I was most impressed with his attitude to the match all the way through. So pleased for him and really looking forward to the final in the morning. And coming on top of that superb win by Jo, and also Jamie and Bruno's win, made Dan's victory all the more sweet. What a great day in Sydney for the Brits. All the very very best tomorrow Dan! :GBflag:

Great result for Dan, mind I did get a bit worried when Kuznetsov won the second set, but Dan fought for the win, great to watch tennis on a morning & then to learn Johanna got the win,and now Jamie & Bruno, brilliant weekend for the Brits, but was just great to see Dan fight like that....looking forward to the final, really hope Dan gets the win!....GO DAN!!!!!:thumbup:

Much better players than Dan have trouble with Muller's serves, Dan fought well to hold 6 of his in set1 but the tiebreak luck was against him, a set he could easily have won, then the greater experience and serving, has told 2-5. Dan can be proud.

Absolutely! Very proud of him and if he carries on playing like this, there will be many more chances. Muller must feel so relieved to finally get his first title at age 33.

Everyone needs to remember how far Dan has progressed in the last year. At the start of 2016 Dan lost in the first round of Happy Valley challenger to a guy ranked #500 and was ranked #176. This year he reached his first ATP Semi AND Final and will have a NCH of 51 tomorrow. Well done Dan, we are all proud of you!

Oh Gilles! :crying: Very emotional speech! And a lovely one too and well done on his first ATP tour win. But well done Dan Evans too! A great week and the first set of the final had some very competitive tennis and was so good to watch. I hope this gives Dan the taste to reach more finals! Glad to see him smile on the podium. Disappointing for him but he will carry that experience forward I am sure. Good luck in the AO Dan! So proud of you. :bravo::clap :clap:

JAMES4578
14-01-2017, 11:49
Obviously disappointing Dan couldn't quite stay with Muller in the end but still a great run and hopefully this tournament will have shown him he can progress much further than he would have envisaged not so long ago. On a good day can certainly compete with some of the top players, definitely come a long way lately! Well done to Giles in winning first tour title,taken him a little while but it shows perseverance pays off.

A match too far for Dan and he is bound to be bitterly disappointed but, when he's had time to reflect and talk to his coach and Leon, I'm sure he will take the many positives from this week. Well done to Gilles Muller on his first title at 33 - just shows what persistence can do!

Well hats off to Dan! He played a great first set which could have gone either way and I think one shot in the tie break made all the difference. After that it was just time for Giles to get a trophy :) Feeling really positive for Dan at the minute. Hugs Caro :) love his game too!

15-01-2017, 20:00
Dan faces Facundo Bagnis at 6.30am tomorrow, live on Eurosport player (all games are available live), for those of you who don't know much about Bagnis, apart from him being world #55, I can tell you the following: in 2016 he won 6 challenger finals, all in South America, he played nearly all his matches on clay last year, in fact the only ones he played not on clay were 1 on grass(Wimbledon) and 1 on hard court(Flushing Meadow).
Obviously the large prize money attracts him to the Slams. I see Dan as a firm favourite for this tie, cmon Dan

roytennisfan
15-01-2017, 21:19
The other news on Bagnis I should have added, is that he lost to Brydan Klein in r1 at Auckland last week, Brydan moved up to #280 after that win (and GB #7)

roytennisfan
16-01-2017, 14:21
Does this win boost his ranking into the top 50?

Afraid not, he had 35 points dropping (won qualies last year) so has gained 10 points, he is currently close but down 1 to #52 in live due to others wins.
With 60 more points dropping during the Davis Cup week, Dan will need to recover those and more to make the top50. However, If he beats Cilic he should make the top50...BUT that's a very big IF!

16-01-2017, 19:36
I managed to watch most of Dan's match after Andy's and before I had to go out this morning... First set was a bit up and down, though Dan made a great recovery in the TB after being 2 or 3 set points down. (Brain beginning to get fuzzy...tired now!!!) But Dan took the next 2 sets by the scruff of the neck and showed some good form. Won well in the end. I was thinking it must have been hard to get himself fired up after playing the final in Sydney on Saturday, then travel to Melbourne and finally re-adjust to a new court...all this in about 24 hours. Big ask! Also, and this is totally irrelevant and unimportant, but Dan didn't seem to be wearing his usual Nike gear...it appeared unbranded to me. I wondered did some of his luggage go AWOL on the trip down to Melbourne? Just curious!

roytennisfan
16-01-2017, 21:21
Dan was 3 sps down at 3-6 in tb, first 2 on opp serve, Dan played more aggressively for them, but was a bit up and down in that first set. AS you say he had 5 days playing in Sydney and only day off he was travelling. Then he was put on the small court where people were walking past and no hawkeye, which i bet that really pleased him (not!). Still looks like he got away with a few choice words again.

edit: maybe his luggage finally arrived in Paris...lol

Looking forward to the Cilic match. I don't think anyone expects him to win but I am very hopeful that he will give a good account of himself and well, you just never know .... Go Evooooo!!

Cilic can have a poor match and you never know, remember how close Dan was to beating Stan in the previous slam...and how poor Cilic played in Chennai losing to Kovalik #117 Obviously took 5 sets against Janowicz in r1 (currently #274 and who lost previous game in Auckland to #195) . Dan has a chance! Let's go Evo let's go!

I think Dan's got a pretty good chance. His variety can really get under the skin of more one dimensional players such as Marin. Plus, Evo is so fearless whereas Marin can get a little brittle sometimes. All pressure is on Cilic, so Dan can just go out and swing at everything. Good luck Evo, you can do it :cheer:
