Belgium Nears Upset Against Australia in Davis Cup Tennis

Belgium is just one victory away from causing an upset and knocking out Davis Cup giant Australia.

Thanks to Raphael Collignon for that.

91-ranked Collignon shocked world eight Alex De Minaur and the tennis audience in Sydney. He won a thriller that took over three hours (7-5, 3-6, 6-3).

It feels fantastic. I did not think I would be able to finish the match because I got cramp in the beginning of the third set, says Collignon.

Belgian number one Zizou Bergs followed up by defeating Jordan Thompson with 2–0 in sets.

28-time Davis Cup champions Australia must now win Sunday's both singles and the doubles to not be eliminated.
