Only 48 hours after winning the tournament's longest-ever match in a gruelling five hours and 33 minutes, Evans made much lighter work of Mariano Navone in round two.
The Argentinian, ranked 36 in the world, was dispatched in straight sets and whatever physical effects Evans was feeling he did not show them as he won 6-4 6-3 6-3.
Evans said it was important he backed up Tuesday's win over Karen Khachanov.
"It's been different, but it was important to win," he said. "The record is obviously great, but I'm here to win.
"It's not just to get that record and then roll over, I wanted to make sure I continued it. And it wasn't just one match."
