Well done to the top ranked doubles team Metkic and Pavic winning 63 64 against Sinner and The Fog.

Proposed plans from Kosmos for Davis Cup Finals in 2022,

The epitome of a "choke job!" Knowing Djokovic, he'll hug and forgive Kecmanovic, but I'd be giving him the side eye with that nice lead and subsequent gag! He had all those match points! He just made it harder for Serbia to advance; if they advance!
