–
After two days off, Canada got back on the Davis Cup horse and knew that the players had to step up their games.
Because it’s not Korea Republic they’re facing, it’s Spain.
The Spanish team had up to an hour before the 10 a.m. start Friday to announce if new world No. 1 Carlos Alcaraz is going to play.
He did. And Auger-Aliassime defeated him, after which the Canadian pulled off the impossible in doubles and won the tie.
Here are the current standings.
