French Davis Cup captain Yannick Noah really took one for the team in this video, in which he sang popular songs using only tennis terms for a charades-style game with his players.

For example, he sang "Let It Be" with just the word "serve," "We Will Rock You" using only "drop shot" and, most importantly, "We Are the Champions" with the sole lyric being "lob."

One more time for the people in the back:

Players Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, Lucas Pouille and Jeremy Chardy were tasked with guessing the songs, and Tsonga's knowledge of Bob Marley tracks gave him the edge he needed to win the game with four points.

The Croatian team, meanwhile, split up for a game show of its own:

That game's winning squad, to some dispute, was Team Ancic, consisting of Marin Cilic, Ivan Dodig and Franko Skugor.

The Davis Cup final between France and Croatia kicked off in Lille on Friday. Croatia's Borna Coric currently leads Jeremy Chardy in the first rubber. Perhaps France might not be the champions after all.
