Well, that could be a long evening: Because the first match between Australia and the Netherlands in Malaga took 2:53 hours. And after a 4:6, 7:5 and 6:3 it brought a winner with Jordan Thompson, who had been nominated very late by Lleyton Hewitt. Loser Tallon Griekspoor, on the other hand, had already been available to the Dutch in the intermediate round in Glasgow.
In the second singles, Alex de Minaur can now ensure the Australians' entry into the semi-finals. The Australian number one meets Botic van de Zandschulp.
The winner of this game meets the winner of tomorrow's match between hosts Spain and last year's Croatian finalists in the semi-finals.
