Montenegro took a 2-1 lead in Pretoria against the home team of South Africa, as part of the Davis Cup World Group II, but failed to reach the decisive point.

Filip Henning defeated Petar Jovanović (6:3, 6:2) and then Alec Beckley was better than Aleksa Krivokapić (7:6, 6:3).

Montenegrin tennis doubles, Petar Jovanović and Aleksa Krivokapić, played perfectly after 73 minutes and defeated the home doubles, Filip Henning and Tando Longvi-Smith, 6:2, 7:6.

The Montenegrin Davis Cup team needed one more point to win, but...

Hennig had the best rating - 317th ATP and after beating Krivokapić yesterday (6:4, 6:2), he was confident against Jovanović today.

Jovanović beat Bekli in three sets yesterday, Krivokapić served for the set, but his rival was more experienced and, with the support of the home crowd, turned it around.
