Of course.

Dom 3-0 up. I would love to see more of the doubles specialists play more singles. Dom seems more than capable of stepping up if he so desired.

paulisi · Tennis legend

Dom cruises through the first set 6-1 mainly thanks to his opponents erratic serving

paulisi · Tennis legend

Dom wins 6-1 6-2 makes the final qualifier and picks up 6pts for his troubles. His next match may be a bit more difficult...

Obviously Treat didn't want to play a Davis Cup tie in the Philippines, fly all the way to Europe for one event, and then fly back for the Asian swing.

... especially now that he's 2 sets to 1 up but a break down against Michael Venus in the 5th rubber of the tie against New Zealand well past 1 am local time! (according to something DC twitter just RTd)

1.30 am, 5th rubber, final set - what a Treat for the fans in the Philippines!

(I'd call it the Thriller in Manila, part 2 ... but sadly it's being played in Lapu-Lapu City!)

And the "Treat" bit doesn't work, either: when I saw Dom being interviewed by John Inverdale during ITV's coverage of Roland-Garros for the first time last year, he pronounced it "tret". wink

Surely you know I knew that? LOL It does kind of work written on the page though

1.50 am in the Philippines and sadly for Treat , it's Venus (yes, he's got it ...) - the ex-Aussie Kiwi beat Treat from 2 sets down to end a final day of play that lasted nearly 10 hours

the gb slovakia tie at breahead last year went quite late last year did it not?

steven · Tennis legend

It did, because as in the Philippines it started at 4 pm, but I don't think it went past about 10.30 pm.

Coup Droit · Tennis legend

That's one cross Russian. 7-6 (9-7) to Dom.
