Alexander Erler and Lucas Miedler on Sunday in Bad Waltersdorf

Here you can read about the day in the live ticker.

On Sunday, when no games were actually supposed to take place, the weather forced a slight postponement of the Davis Cup match between Austria and Turkey. But at 1 p.m. sharp, Alexander Erler, Lucas Miedler, Altug Celikbilek and Yanki Erel came onto the court.

And the two Austrians, who were unable to play together on the ATP Tour at the end of the summer due to an injury to Lucas Miedler, won 6:3 and 6:4 in conditions that were nevertheless difficult due to the wind.

This also makes it clear that after the opening successes of Jurij Rodionov and Lukas Neumayer, Austria is the winner of this international match. This means that they will be back in the World Group next year. The draw will take place during the final round in Malaga.
