Mackin's efforts have guaranteed him a £7685 pay cheque and lifted from 270 to 240 in the world. Should he beat Lapentti, he will crack the top 200 for the first time.

While the South American, much more used to hot weather, won easily enough, 6-4, 6-4, 6-2, on Court 19, Mackin was up against two opponents – Lapentti and the Australian summer. Of the two, the Australian summer was plainly the tougher.
