- Murray and Dan Evans into doubles quarter-finals
- GB pair beat Belgian duo 6-3, 6-7 (8-10), (11-9)
Andy Murray is two wins away from adorning his career swansong with a medal at Paris 2024 after he and his men’s doubles partner, Dan Evans, reached the quarter-finals with a dramatic win against Sander Gille and Joran Vliegen having saved two match points.
The 6-3, 6-7 (8-10), (11-9) win was a further act of escapism following their white-knuckle ride two days previously in the first round. On that occasion they had to recover from five match points down in overcoming Kei Nishikori and Taro Daniel; this time they lost two of their own before battling back when they came under fire, Evans ultimately putting the third away with an emphatic volley before leaping into Murray’s arms.
