British number one Dan Evans had to do it the hard way to win his Australian Open first-round match, fighting back to beat American Mackenzie McDonald in a five-set scrap.

Evans, playing his first Grand Slam as a seeded player, was tight as he lost the opening two sets.

But the 30th seed settled down to win 3-6 4-6 6-1 6-2 6-3 in Melbourne.

Fellow Britons Johanna Konta and Kyle Edmund play later on the opening day of the first Grand Slam of the year.
