British duo Cameron Norrie and Dan Evans both suffered early exits at the Monte Carlo Masters on Monday.
Norrie went down to a painful 7-5 7-6 defeat to Karen Khachanov in a match lasting two hours and 24 minutes at the prestigious ATP 1000 event on the Côte d'Azur. Evans' woes on clay continued as he fell to Austrian world No 44 Sebastian Ofner 6-1 6-4.
You could see Ofner just slightly tightening up,' said Andy Murray's former coach Jamie Delgado. 'Ofner served great and in all honesty he deserved the win, he played a good controlled match and dictated play.' Tale of the Tape 'Dan's second serve points won picked up in the second set but it was a big problem for him winning the baseline rallies,' said Delgado. 'He never really got into Ofner's service game. He was a deserved winner.
