Sweden stays alive with doubles win over Serbia
Tennis Betting Lines
02/11/2012 -
Nis, Serbia (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Sweden stayed alive in its first-round Davis
Cup tie with Serbia after the doubles team of Johan Brunstrom and Robert
Lindstedt pulled out a five-set victory over Janko Tipsarevic and Nenad
Zimonjic on Saturday.
The Serbs, playing without world No. 1 Novak Djokovic, needed only a win
Saturday to advance to the quarterfinals after Tipsarevic and Viktor Troicki
won singles matches on Friday for a 2-0 lead.
Brunstrom and Lindstedt had other ideas, however, and earned a 3-6, 6-3, 7-6
(7-4), 6-7 (3-7), 10-8 win in four hours and nine minutes to force Sunday's
reverse singles to become relevant.
Tipsarevic will get the first chance on Sunday against Michael Ryderstedt,
while the second reverse singles match currently calls for Troicki to face
Filip Prpic.
Djokovic, along with Serbian captain Bogdan Obradovic, decided that the
reigning Australian Open, U.S. Open and Wimbledon champion should rest this
week following the No. 1's most recent championship run in Melbourne.
The Serbia-Sweden winner will meet the Czech Republic in April's quarterfinals
after the Czechs advanced past Italy on Saturday.
Serbia captured the Davis Cup title two years ago, while Sweden, captained by
Thomas Enqvist, owns seven championships, but none since 1998.
The Serbs defeated the Swedes, 4-1, in the quarterfinals last year.
