Davis Cup: Debutants shine as US leads Taiwan in qualifiers

The Hindu  

Alex Michelsen gave the United States a 2-0 lead over Taiwan on his Davis Cup debut in the first-round qualifiers on Friday, while Jacob Fearnley also impressed in his first appearance in the competition to pull Britain level with Japan. Michelsen, fresh from his Australian Open heroics where the 20-year-old reached the fourth round for the first time, defeated Wu Tung-Lin 7-6 6-3 to give the U.S. a commanding lead in Tapei City where the action will continue on Saturday. Yoshihito Nishioka put Japan ahead against Britain, defeating Billy Harris 7-5, 6-1 before 23-year-old Fearnley, who reached the third round of the Australian Open, beat the experienced former U.S. Open finalist Kei Nishikori 6-3, 6-3. Casper Ruud beat Tomas Etcheverry 6-3, 6-3 to draw the Norwegians level before Mariano Navone overcame Nicolai Budkov Kjaer 4-6, 6-3, 6-4 to seal Argentina’s win.
