It looks like the only team in World and World Playoffs to win both matches was Switzerland! So many HUGE doubles matches on Saturday!

Looks like Murray is going to play doubles as well.

Something I've always wondered. Australia's athletes wear the green and gold uniforms. I love the look. Is there talk of changing the flag?

Really intense doubles match between Great Britain and Australia going on . Aussies take the first 6-4, Brits take the second 6-3, Aussies were a break up at 4-2 but The Murrays just broke back and back on serve. Intense!

Wawrinka backs out of doubles and so Fed played with Chudinelli and los the doubles in 5 sets. Tomorrow Fed will play Thiemo DeBakker (ranked 147) for the reverse singles to put an end to things.

India had Leander Paes and Rohan Boppanna, two accomplished players, for the doubles. However, they were dismissed cheaply by Worm & Co in straight sets.

GRB leads 2 sets to one. Lead 6-5 in the fourth.

Andy Murray to serve.

He had not dropped one point on his serve in the set.

30-0.

Aussies break back. Tie Break.

Murrays have a match point at 6-5.

Aussies take the tie break 8-6.

Ouch.

Sure hope the Murrays can shake that one off.

On to the fifth set.

Belgium loses doubles and will need to win both singles rubbers tomorrow. Looks like Argentina is about to make another final with one of their weakest squads in name at least.

That was a great win from Great Britain! They should have won in 4 sets but the Australian team use their guile and determination to win that 4th set.

I know everyone will give Andy Murray the credit if Great Britain wins the Davis Cup (deservedly so) but Jamie Murray is playing spectacular doubles play right now. He is using that classic lob or slice to make his opponents uncomfortable on the net.

I know nothing is certain, but I feel like Great Britain will win the Davis Cup right now.

I agree, GB is in a great position to win, also home advantage if they make the finals.

It would be epic if Tomic wins. After all the rubbish that's transpired between Tomic and Tennis Australia, for him to pull out the upset? :snicker
