BUENOS AIRES, Argentina (AP) — Argentina took an unbeatable 3-0 lead Friday in its Davis Cup quarterfinal against Kazakhstan.
The Argentine doubles team of Juan Ignacio Chela and Eduardo Schwank defeated the Kazak pair of Evgeny Korolev and Yuriy Schukin 6-3, 6-2, 7-5. Juan Monaco and Juan Martin Del Potro won their opening singles matches on Thursday.
The Kazakhs led 4-2 in the final set before Argentina rallied on the red outdoor clay at Parque Roca, on the outskirts of the Argentine capital.
The start of the five-match series was moved up a day to avoid a conflict with elections on Sunday in Buenos Aires.
