Nishioka records 6-4 6-3 6-4 win over
British No 1Evans blew chance to face Djokovic, who beat ItoWhen Dan Evans lost for the third time in a row to the world No 71, Yoshihito Nishioka, in swirling winds on an outside court here on Wednesday, he blew a chance to play
Novak Djokovic – who has breezed into the third round of the
Australian Open like a hurricane.
However, the British No 1 can look back on an excellent few weeks in Australia, one of his favourite destinations. He beat the local favourite, Alex de Minaur, in fine style during Great Britain’s run to the semi-finals of the inaugural ATP Cup, and he was impressive coming from two sets down to get through the first round here against the
American Mackenzie McDonald.
