The teams were certainly based on the rankings.

PHH takes the opening set in a tie-breaker (7-2 was the tie-breaker score). Just way too many unforced errors from Felix coupled with the fact that he's not getting enough returns back in play.

PHH breaks Felix late in set 2 and slams the door shut with a second serve ace to take the match 7-6 7-5. Felix played better in set 2, but PHH won the majority of the big points.

I think it was a great event and adds a ton of excitement that was non-existent in January otherwise.

The ATP just needs to have the Davis cup finals earlier in the year now instead of dragging it on until all the players are wiped out and injured.

Who's ready for some Fed Cup action? Leylah Annie Fernandez takes on Jil Teichmann to kick things off.

By the way, Genie has a wrist injury and so Gaby Dabrowski will be playing singles for Canada against Belinda Bencic.

Great fight from Leylah in this first set. Promising.

Osaka just lost to Sorribes(who?) 60 63

What kind of tennis is that?

Well, Teichmann takes the first set in a tie-breaker, but after losing the first 10 points of the match, Leylah settled in nicely. She's right in this match after it looked early that she was going to be overwhelmed.

Good thing Hawkeye is at this tourney, that was a homer line call that Leylah challenged and her shot was well in. Earns a break as well.

Edit: Having trouble consolidating these breaks.

Gasquet picked up an injury in his previous match and had to retire against Vasek today after dropping the first set 6-1.

Fed and Rafa are warming up in Cape Town (no tv for this match, however).
