Tennis: Czechs lead with Serbia 2-1 in Davis Cup finals

The Czech Republic is leading Serbia 2-1 in the finals of the Davis Cup in Belgrade after Tomáš Berdych and Radek Štěpánek defeated Serbia’s Nenad Zimonjič and Ilja Bozoljac 6-2, 6-7, 7-6 in Saturday’s doubles. In Sunday’s decisive singles, Tomáš Berdych will take on world number two Novak Djokovič who surprisingly did not appear in the doubles; Radek Štepánek will later play Dušan Lajovič. The Czech Davis Cup team is defending last year’s triumph in the competition.
