How to use evidently in a sentence?

1. Rafael Nadal:

   Evidently today wasn't the game I wanted or hoped to play. I tried until the end but it is not a day I am going to remember, even so, this week has been a very important week for me in which I have recovered sensations which I haven't felt on a tennis court for some time.

2. John McCain:

   The truth of that narrative is evidently of secondary importance, as the article exposed how the White House manipulated and, in some cases, manufactured facts to sell the reckless Iran nuclear deal to the American people as a prelude to large-scale disengagement from the Middle East, president Obama has taken great pains to set himself apart from his predecessor. He has succeeded in at least one respect by failing to find the courage to challenge his own assumptions, admit mistakes, and chart a better course.

3. Joshua Wong:

   I'm shocked and appalled as the Hong Kong Government evidently colluded with Chinese authorities to put activists in greater danger, on matters clearly within its jurisdiction.

4. Governor Ivey:

   Even after listening to the tape, I sincerely do not recall either the skit, which evidently occurred at a Baptist Student Union party, or the interview Baptist Student Union, both which occurred 52 years ago. Even though Ben LaRavia is the one on tape remembering the skit -- and I still don't recall ever dressing up in overalls or in blackface -- I will not deny what is the obvious, as such, I fully acknowledge -- with genuine remorse -- my participation in a skit like that back when I was a senior in college.

5. Alan Gottlieb:

   Defense Distributed appears caught in what appears to be a bureaucratic game of merry-go-round, the right to keep and bear arms includes the ability to acquire or create arms. The government is engaging in behavior that denies this company’s due process under the Fifth Amendment. We’re compelled to file this action because the bureaucracy is evidently playing games and it’s time for these agencies to behave.
