00:00Birmingham-born tennis star Dan Evans has played the final match of his professional
00:04career after an emotional farewell at Wimbledon. The 36-year-old sportsman bowed out following
00:10a straight-set men's doubles defeat alongside fellow Briton Henry Searle. Evans announced
00:16before the championships that this year's tournament would be his last. During a career
00:22spanning two decades, he won two ATP Tour titles, helped Great Britain lift the Davis
00:27Cup and reached the third round at Wimbledon three times. Fighting back tears during his
00:33post-match interviews, Evans thanked his family for their support and said every
00:38sacrifice made had been worth making to get to live his dream.
