France was eliminated from the Davis Cup in the group stage after Germany’s victory against Belgium (2-1) on Friday in Hamburg, which deprives the Blues of any chance of qualifying for the quarter-finals. Defeat in their first two games against Germany (2-1) on Wednesday then Australia (2-1) on Thursday, the France team once again failed to get out of the group stage of the competition after the 2021 edition.
Sébastien Grosjean’s men may have regrets after this failure in a pool that the captain of the Blues judged “homogeneous” before the competition. In the first meeting against Germany on Wednesday, Benjamin Bonzi (53rd player in the world) had two match points against Jan-Lennard Struff, who finally won the first point, giving the advantage to the Germany. Against the Australians, the tricolor player had also been very close to victory against Alex De Minaur. The Blues will therefore play a last meeting, without stake therefore, against Belgium on Saturday (from 2 p.m.).
