World No. 28 Daniel Evans showed good form during his first-round match in Doha, where he eased past Egor Gerasimov 6-4, 6-4 in one hour, 31 minutes.

Evans hit the ball cleanly throughout in his first ATP Tour meeting with Gerasimov. He broke to love in the fifth game of the match and stayed solid to give his Belarusian opponent little say in the first set.


Fifth-seeded Evans was particularly strong on serve. He won 85 per cent (29/34) of points behind his first serve and Gerasimov did not earn a break point in the match. A single early break for the Briton in the second set was enough for him to set a second-round clash with Spaniard Alejandro Davidovich Fokina or Tunisian qualifier Malek Jaziri in the second round.

The air in Monaco brings out the best in Briton Daniel Evans. The World No. 27 soared to his first Masters 1000 semi-final in Monte Carlo last year, upsetting World No. 1 Novak Djokovic and Pole Hubert Hurkacz en route.

One year on and Evans once again found the winning formula at the clay-court event, moving past Frenchman Benjamin Bonzi 6-0, 7-6(4) on Tuesday to reach the second round.

The 29-year-old won 100 per cent (9/9) of his first-serve points in the opening set as he dictated from the baseline, before he showed his fighting spirit in the second set, rallying from 1-4 to eventually advance after one hour and 40 minutes.


With his victory, Evans has snapped a three-match losing streak and now leads lucky loser Bonzi 1-0 in their ATP Head2Head series. He will next face either top seed Djokovic in a rematch from last season or Spaniard Alejandro Davidovich Fokina.

Evans has recorded some impressive results so far in 2022, earning ATP Cup wins against Canadian Denis Shapovalov and American John Isner and advancing to the semi-finals at the Sydney Tennis Classic.

Bonzi was making his debut at the Monte Carlo Country Club and arrived high in confidence, having captured the seventh ATP Challenger Tour of his career in Cherbourg earlier this season.
