The Belgian team advanced to the second phase of the 2025 Davis Cup after defeating Chile 3-1. Following the 1-1 tie on the first day, Sander Gille and Joran Vliegen overcame Tomás Barrios and Nicolás Jarry in the doubles match (6-3 3-6 6-3). However, controversy arose in the Cristian Garín versus Zizou Bergs match, where the Chilean was disqualified for deciding not to continue playing after being hit by his opponent while celebrating exuberantly. The Belgian player was running towards his bench when he accidentally collided with Garín, leading the Chilean to refuse to play further as the Belgian was not disqualified. An unprecedented situation that is likely to have consequences.
