GHENT, Belgium — Britain is a point from capturing the Davis Cup title for the first time in 79 years, having won in doubles against Belgium on Saturday.
The brothers Andy and Jamie Murray beat David Goffin and Steve Darcis, 6-4, 4-6, 6-3, 6-2, to give Britain a 2-1 lead in the final going into the reverse singles on Sunday.
Andy Murray could seal Britain’s victory in Sunday’s first match against Goffin.
However, Murray sounded a note of caution, saying, “It’s far from over.”
Goffin has not won a set in two previous meetings with Murray and lost, 6-1, 6-0, against him at the Paris Masters last month.
