Kazakhstan’s No.1 Mikhail Kukushkin defeated Andreas Seppi brining the score to 2:2. Kukushkin won with 7-6 (10/8), 6-0, 6-4 in two hours two minutes.
“The first set was very difficult. But after winning it I began playing more confidently. Luckily I managed to break early in the third and kept my lead to win the rubber," Kukushkin said.
"Mikhail (Kukushkin) played very solid and aggressive tennis, while I had around 20 minutes in the second set when I didn't know what to do. And unlike the first day my serve was not helping me," Seppi said.
