On Sunday at Pat Rafter Arena, Australia's tennis duo of Rinky Hijikata and Max Purcell secured a crucial 3-1 victory over Poland in the Davis Cup, advancing the hosts to the penultimate round of the competition. The match was a thrilling affair, with Purcell's backhand return and acing brilliance turning the tide in Australia's favor.
Following de Minaur's earlier 6-3 6-3 victory, Poland's Jan Zielinski and Karol Drzewiecki were unable to mount a comeback, resulting in a 3-1 win for Australia. The world No.9's return to form was evident in his flawless performance, bringing confidence to the team after their disappointing US Open second-round exit.
