Dan Evans recently announced that he'll hang up his racket just after Wimbledon, and this is a conversation that he and I had shortly before the French Open actually, when he first told me that he was going to retire, and I couldn't resist asking him if he wouldn't mind covering the many highs and lows of his career in a conversation here on the Tennis Podcast. He was happy to do that. Um, we talked about his rise up the rankings.
