After Moutet’s opening victory, Arthur Rinderknech secured a clean and flawless win against Marin Cilic. France leads 2-0 and can already see the finals taking shape.

In his first match since the US Open round of 16, Rinderknech was the boss on the clay courts of Osijek.

Facing Marin Cilic, the 2014 US Open champion, the Frenchman didn’t need to dig deep into his reserves, winning 6-2, 6-4 in an hour and a half without conceding a single break point in the match.

Before tomorrow’s doubles, France is in a strong position to secure its spot in the Davis Cup Final 8.

The finals are here, and we scramble for the best finish. I've been chasing "King" all year and I was able to shrink the spread a little. Skelp is also closing the gap.

Seasons best to all the regulars in our league.

Will you all be back in the new year.?
