Australia died on the shore after equalizing 0-2, winning the doubles, with De Miñaur defeating Zizou Bergs (7-5, 6-2), and being one set up in the final match. They were on the verge of securing their spot in the Copa Davis finals in Bologna, but Belgium, led by Raphael Collignon who had beaten De Miñaur the day before, halted the comeback attempt and ensured Belgium's qualification for the Copa Davis finals after defeating Aleksandar Vukic 6-7(5), 6-2, 6-3 in the fifth match, after two hours and eleven minutes. Consequently, Australia, finalists in two of the last three editions, will not be among the eight teams contending for the cup in November.
