DUESSELDORF (Germany): World number one Lleyton Hewitt helped Australia into an unbeatable 2-0 lead over the United States at the World Team Cup yesterday, but then played down his chances at next week’s French Open.
Hewitt beat American James Blake 6-3, 6-3, varying his game well in blustery and heavy conditions, before compatriot Wayne Arthurs made it 2-0 in the best-of-three encounter with a 7-6, 7-5 victory over Todd Martin in the second singles.
