Arthur Fils may need a long time to forget this match.
Largely dominant for almost 2 hours, the Frenchman cracked under pressure.

Opposed to a valiant Roberto Bautista Agut, who was without a solution for a long time, Fils was quietly on his way to victory.
Serving for the match in the second set (6-2, 5-4), the Tricolor shook at the worst possible moment.
The experienced Spaniard brought the crowd to his feet and completely broke the 20-year-old Frenchman (2-6, 7-5, 6-3).
Tensing at the worst possible moment, the world number 25 may have just condemned his team to defeat, losing in 3 sets and almost 3 hours.
Ugo Humbert now has no choice but to topple Carlos Alcaraz if he is not to condemn France to elimination.
