Barrere to completely finish off Evans?
The French find themselves favorites against an Evans in distress, logical?
Another defeat for Evans in Atlanta and this one hurts! The British led 6/2 5/3 40/0 and lost the match against Koepfer, already that he is going through a complicated period I tell myself that it must be even harder to manage this defeat at this particular moment. Even if in the end it's a defeat we saw it not bad at all, it turned well around its backhand and its slice became sharper again I think. Now this kind of defeat can totally bring him back or, on the contrary, give him something positive and the desire to quickly move on. Hard to say. Barrere also scared himself by wasting 3 set points in the first round but recovered well afterwards. We hadn't seen the Frenchman since Wimbledon, which may explain this first "recovery" match and his level of play should gradually increase. In the game Barrere will have to be enterprising and aggressive, the Frenchman has a very good backhand along the line and could take advantage of Dan's shifts to hurt in space.
