With their success in doubles, the Swiss have already achieved their second big surprise this weekend. Only one individual win is missing from the underdog victory.

Riedi (ATP 175) and Hüsler (ATP 199) are also significantly worse in the individual world rankings than Tallon Greekpoor (ATP 29) and Botic van de Zandschulp (ATP 63). Leandro Riedi and Tallon Greekpoor contest the third singles. (SDA)
