Spain assured their place in the final phase of the Davis Cup after Carlos Alcaraz and Roberto Bautista won their singles matches against France in Valencia on Friday.

Alcaraz gave a solid display to assure Spain go into Sunday’s tie with Australia when he beat Ugo Humbert 6-3, 6-3.

Humbert tried to be aggressive against the world No. 3, but in front of a home crowd, Alcaraz always looked to have his match under control.
