Before, they did the same against Kazakhstan and Great Britain. One last prestigious victory, supported by the world number 35, Botic van de Zandschulp, who has been crucial to the success of the Dutch taking his third singles victory of the week over Taylor Fritz (6-4 and 7-6( 3)).
Finally, the French Mahut and Rinderknech defeated the Belgians Sander Guille and Joran Vliegen 6-3 and 7-6(6) in the doubles, to certify their first victory of the week. A victory that comes late for those captained by Sebastien Grosjean, who were previously defeated by Germany and Australia, with no chance of being in Malaga.
