Daniel Evans and Roger Federer are going to clash on Wednesday (10th) in the 2nd round in Doha for the 4th time in their career. The 20-time slam champion was spotted watching the 1st round match that Daniel won against Jeremy Chardy that ended 6-4 1-6 6-2, a battle that lasted 2 hours and 15 minutes.
When asked about Roger’s presence at the match, the world no.28 didn’t seem so worried as he has been training for long with Federer and therefore there are no secrets between them.
“He obviously has seen a lot of my game the past few weeks, so I guess I would say it was more out of boredom. He’s probably waiting for his practice than scouting out what’s happening on the court. Let’s put it down to that,” said Evans having a laugh.
