Tennis: Daniel Evans Stuns Novak Djokovic In Monte Carlo

Tennis World No. 33 Daniel Evans recorded the biggest win of his career after a stunning 6-4, 7-5 victory against World No. 1 Novak Djokovic at the Rolex Monte-Carlo Masters tournament, ending the Serbian’s unbeaten start to the 2021 ATP Tour season.

Evans, who used his slice to great effect, held his nerve after seeing a double-break lead evaporate, then fought back from 0-3 down in the second set.

He saved one set point at 4-5, 30/40 en route to his fourth Top 10 victory that ended Djokovic’s perfect 10-0 start to 2021, which includes lifting his ninth Australian Open crown.

Who saw that coming?
