Dan Evans concludes singles career with Wimbledon qualifying defeat
Summary

Dan Evans’ singles career ended with a second-round defeat to Tristan Schoolkate, 7-5, 6-0, in Wimbledon qualifying held at Roehampton. The match faced a delay due to a temporary power outage affecting the electronic line calling system, leading to the suspension of play. After a break, Schoolkate dominated the second set to secure victory. Evans had announced his intention to retire after this tournament and will still compete in the men's doubles event alongside Henry Searle. The tournament is currently facing extreme heat conditions, which may have contributed to the power issues experienced.
