United Cup: Mertens Beats Mboko To Seal Belgium's Win Over Canada As Group Winner Up For Grabs
Nitto ATP Finals: Elise Mertens secured Belgium's victory over Canada with a 6-3, 3-6, 6-3 triumph against Victoria Mboko. Her 2 hour and 5-minute triumph followed a stunning 6-4, 6-2 win by Zizou Bergs against World No. 5 Felix Auger-Aliassime, putting Belgium on the brink of the quarterfinals.
Despite winning the tie, the Belgians need a clean sweep to advance. If Canada wins mixed doubles, then it advances to the knockout rounds.
Mertens rode a stellar serving performance to a one-set lead, holding at love in each of her first four service games and breaking Mboko decisively to love in the sixth game as well.
