Murray Levels Davis Cup Final as Goffin Survives Scare
GHENT, Belgium — A fired-up Andy Murray showed his class to draw Britain level with Belgium on day one of the Davis Cup final after David Goffin's escape act from a two-set deficit had given the hosts the lead in Ghent on Friday.
The 28-year-old world number two Murray, who has almost single-handedly put Britain on the brink of their first title since 1936, duly delivered another point, beating 108th-ranked Ruben Bemelmans 6-3 6-2 7-5 on the indoor claycourt.
Murray's hunger to capture the team trophy has been evident all year with inspirational displays against the U.S., France and Australia and he wore his heart on his sleeve again as he withstood a Bemelmans fightback to clinch victory.
