Evans on fans booing: «Ironically, I stayed on the court just for them»

British tennis player Dan Evans commented on the behavior of fans during the match of the third round of the US Open against Australian Alex De Minor.

The match ended with Evans losing 3:6, 7:6(4), 0:6, 0:6. The 34-year-old athlete suffered a hip problem at the end of the match and fans started buzzing for him.

«The irony is that I stayed on court just for them. But there have been worse. I'll get over it», Evans said after the match.

At the start of the US Open-2024, Evans secured a win over Russia's Karen Khachanov in five sets. Their match became the longest in the history of the tournament — the tennis players spent 5 hours and 35 minutes on court.
