How Is Andy Murray Responsible For Dan Evans’ New Look?

Dan Evans has just grown a mustache. This is the British number one’s new look and Andy Murray revealed the reason behind this. In a recent interview with BBC, Andy said,

“He was kind of growing one and I was rinsing him for that because, in my opinion, it’s a poor look. Then we were playing golf the following day and the losers had to grow a mustache for this event this week. He and his coach Mark Hilton got smoked on the golf course and they have both got pretty poor mustaches just now.”

Evans lost at the golf course but he made up for it by beating Kyle Edmund in straight sets at the Battle of the Brits. On the other hand, Andy Murray lost his first match at the team event which was a doubles’ match. However, we can expect him to make up for it by winning the other matches.

Many players are likely to skip the US Open due to the many restrictions. However, Andy has confirmed his participation at the event despite his initial concerns. Hopefully, he will do really well at the event and maybe even win his first Slam since 2016.
