Dan Evans advances to Nottingham final

British number three Dan Evans has reached his second successive grass-court final with a 6-4 6-2 win over Japan's Go Soeda in Nottingham.

The top seed, 29, will face Russia's world number 148 Evgeny Donskoy later on Sunday as he attempts to add to his Surbiton success last week.

World number 70 Evans is already assured of a Wimbledon main draw slot.

France's Caroline Garcia and Croatia's Donna Vekic will meet in the Nature Valley Open final at the same venue.

Evans, who was banned from the sport for a year from April 2017 for cocaine use, came through qualifying to make the second round of the Australian Open in January.
