Mahut and Herbert hold their rank and qualify the Blues… Relive the second day of the preliminary round of the Davis Cup

Arthur Rinderknech and Adrian Mannarino had started the Davis Cup well by winning the first two singles on Friday, Nicolas Mahut and Pierre-Hugues Herbert have finished the job. The French double qualified the Blues against Ecuador (3-0) by dominating the pair Diego Hidalgo and Gonzalo Escobar, Saturday March 5 at the Palais des sports in Pau. This victory takes the French team to the group stage of the competition, which will take place in September.

Widely favorites against Ecuadorians whose best player Emilio Gomez is only 144th in the ATP rankings, the Habs did not tremble. If Friday had given little chills, the Mahut – Herbert tandem, multiple Grand Slam winners, did not tremble (6-3, 7-5). Relive the encounter.
