Local tennis star Dan Cox was unable to repeat the heroics of his first qualifying round match when he beat Thiemo de Bakker on Monday after going down to Dennis Novak of Austria 6-3 7-5 in round two yesterday.
The 25-year-old Lincoln player was aiming for a passage into the main Wimbledon draw but had no answer to Novak who is ranked 196 in the world.
Cox has recently returned to coaching to earn a living away from the tour.
