Among these 6 saved match points, Kecmanovic spectacularly saved one. While the Serbian had the advantage during the point, Evans played a very good defensive lob, forcing Kecmanovic to hit a tweener.
Perfectly executed, this tweener forced Evans to play a volley drop shot, which the Serbian scrambled to reach, then hitting a strong cross-court backhand, forcing the British player to make the error.
