BREAKING: Canada has defeated Russia in a do-or-die doubles match, advancing to the Davis Cup Finals for the first time in history.

Canada has advanced to the Davis Cup Finals for the first time in history.

Shapovalov and Pospisil started strong, jumping out to a confident early 3-0 lead in the first set that would culminate in a 6-3 win, putting them in a position where they were one set win away from punching their ticket to the Finals. They wouldn’t be denied, emerging victorious in dramatic fashion 6-3, 3-6, 7-6 , sending Canada to the Davis Cup Finals for the first time ever.

But Rublev stormed back in the very next game, using quick foot work and well-placed returns to get his break back and take a 4-3 lead, en route to ultimately taking the set, and the match 6-4, 6-4.
