After a weak start, Philipp Kohlschreiber has put the German Davis Cup team 1-0 ahead in the final tournament in Madrid. The veteran prevailed in the first game of the day against Guido Pella with 1: 6, 6: 3 and 6: 4. Following this, Jan-Lennard Struff can already see Diego Schwartzman make a success for captain Michael Kohlmann's team.
Kohlschreiber already had three match points at the score of 5: 3 in the third set, which he was unable to use on serve Pella. The Argentine, on the other hand, could not endanger his opponent in the decision at any time. With his own service, Kohlschreiber then dropped a match ball, but after just under two hours playing time, the native Augsburg was allowed to cheer. And with him the traveling German fans.
