Just to mention, Robredo got through in straights.
Robredo v Dan Evans next. I think Dan's run may come to an end. I hope not.
Iona, do you follow Evans? What's his game like? I have never watched him, I think...
I try to keep an eye on all the British players. I've mostly seen Dan in Davis Cup matches - on TV and live. He plays mostly challenger tournaments but you might have seen him at Queen's or Wimbledon. This is the first slam where he has played qualifying and progressed.
He's regarded by the LTA as naturally gifted with quick hands. It's his poor work ethic which has hampered him in the past. He seems to have put that behind him. I'm glad he's playing well.
Dan said today that he tried to practice with Tomic in Miami but Bernard's dad said he "wasn't good enough."
Dan has trained with Andy and he hit with Federer yesterday. Perhaps he should just stick to asking the big boys in future.

I can't stay awake for Rafa but I don't think I need to worry. Enjoy Rafa fans.
