BUENOS AIRES, April 5 (UPI) -- Juan Monaco had a straight-set win that pulled Argentina even with France at 1-1 after Friday's play in a best-of-five Davis Cup quarterfinal.
World No. 8 Jo-Wilfried Tsonga battled Carlos Berlocq for nearly 4 hours before claiming a 4-6, 6-2, 6-3, 5-7, 6-2 win for France in the first match of the series. There was much less drama in the second, however, when Monaco defeated Gilles Simon 7-6 (7-2), 6-2, 6-4.
