The 36-year-old Cheltenham resident had announced earlier this month his intention to retire from singles competition following the Championships. Evans faced a challenging path, as he was controversially denied one of the eight singles wildcards for Wimbledon. Consequently, his world ranking required him to win three matches at Roehampton to secure a main draw spot at SW19 via qualifying.
