The epic lasted beyond the four-hour mark as Bogdanovic battled bravely against the former Queen's finalist, but the Briton conceded the decisive break at 22-all in the final set and Mahut made no mistake when serving for victory. There was also disappointment for Daniel Evans and Joshua Goodall, who lost to Ricardas Berankis and Evgeny Kirillov respectively.
