We're off to Madrid for the Davis Cup Finals!
Australia qualified for the Finals by beating Bosnia & Herzegovina in the qualifying round in Adelaide back in February and so the Australian Davis Cup team are headed to Madrid for the new week-long, 18-team Davis Cup finals from November 18-24.
Speaking after our last tie in Adelaide, Australia captain Lleyton Hewitt said: “The end of the year is a tough time for a lot of guys because they get worn out.
“It’s about managing guys’ bodies but also mentally being ready to play an event for your country at the end of the year and trying to peak for that.
“That’s probably something for me and the support staff more to deal with and come up with ideas to try and get the guys motivated as much as possible to go out there and perform to their best.”
Australia has a 2-3 record against Belgium, having lost the the last three ties including the 2017 semifinal, and they will face Colombia for the first time.
