None of Tuesday's World Team Cup matches are decided, as the United States is tied with Spain and the defending champion Serbs are knotted up with France. Germany, meanwhile, leads Argentina 1-0.
Sam Querrey beat Daniel Gimeno-Traver 6-3, 6-4 to even the United States vs. Spain match on Tuesday at the ARAG World Team Cup in Dusseldorf, Germany. Querrey did not drop serve in the first set and he added two breaks in the second before serving out the proceedings at 5-4.
Earlier in the day, Nicolas Almagro just barely managed to put Spain on the scoreboard with a 6-3, 5-7, 7-6(4) victory over Robby Ginepri. Almagro fought off a match point at 5-6 in the third set with a winning backhand before making his way though the decisive tiebreaker with relative ease.
It has been a long few days for Ginepri, who filled in for John Isner (sore right arm). The American lost on Sunday in the final round of Nice qualifying then flew to Roland Garros. He did not have to play qualifying there because he was the last player--as of now--to get in off the alternate list, so he was available to travel to Dusseldorf when Querrey texted him on Monday night.
In other World Team Cup action, defending champion Serbia is tied 1-1 with France. Dusan Lajovic fell to Paul-Henri Mathieu 6-2, 6-3, but Viktor Troicki kept the Serbs alive by hammering Jeremy Chardy 6-3, 6-2.
The host Germans, who finished runner-up last year, got off to a good start against Argentina after losing their opening match to France. Philipp Kohlschreiber took care of Horacio Zeballos 6-3, 6-4 on Tuesday. Kohlschreiber fired eight aces and dropped serve only once before dismissing Zeballos in one hour and 28 minutes.
