Belgrade


BELGRADE - Novak Djokovic's father has declared war on the Serbian tennis federation days after the nation lifted a historic Davis Cup title over France.

BELGRADE - Hundreds of people began gathering Sunday night in downtown Belgrade to celebrate Serbia's victory over France and the country's first Davis Cup title.

BELGRADE - The Davis Cup final could be brought forward from its usual early December date as a result of the Association of Tennis Professional's decision to shorten the men's season by a fortnight, International Tennis Federation (ITF) boss Francesco Ricci Bitti said Sunday on the final day of the Serbia-France tie.

BELGRADE - France moved to within sight of a 10th Davis Cup title with a doubles comeback win from two sets down to earn a 2-1 lead in the final and leaving hosts Serbia fighting for life after a five-set defeat.

BELGRADE - National tennis idol Novak Djokovic struggled at the end but emerged with a win to leave 17,000 fans with weekend victory hopes intact as he pulled host Serbia level 1-1 with France to end opening day play at the Davis Cup final Friday.
