Rafael Nadal hailed Dan Evans’ win over world No. 1, Novak Djokovic, as ‘the best victory of his career’. The British No. 1, stunned top seed Djokovic 6-4 7-5 in little over two hours at the Monte-Carlo Masters – to book a quarter-final clash with Belgium’s David Goffin. "Probably for him is the best victory of his career. Well done for him," Nadal said in his post-match press conference. "That’s all I can say. I watched just a few points because I was preparing for my match. ‘But he looks playing quite well. The point that I saw, he was solid, not missing, playing his match. Yeah, well done for him." Nadal, meanwhile, beat Grigor Dimitrov 6-1 6-1 in just 56 minutes. Dimitrov was clearly miles off his best. Nadal admitted he had no idea about Dimitrov’s tooth problems. "I didn’t know that," said the world No. 3. "Now I understand a little bit more the things. Yeah, he was playing too aggressive and little bit out of rhythm. Yeah, sorry for him. I wish him all the best. As I said, he’s a great guy, a good friend. Y’eah, I just hope the situation is to improve as soon as possible. Yeah, I didn’t know that. He didn’t told me. That shows how good guy he is. Hopefully the situation gets better for him soon."
