In 2015, Belgium was a surprise story that fell short in the Davis Cup final to Great Britain. The underdogs have proven to be resilient with committed, gritty players and a wealth of experience on the world stage. In 2017, they upset Germany, squeaked by Italy and topped a favored Australian team in the semifinals.
The Belgians' final mission is an opportunity to defeat a strong French squad for the Davis Cup trophy in Lille, France on hard courts. The host French stadium has a capacity crowd of over 27,000 spectators hoping to rattle the Belgians.
