Davis Cup Update: Serbia vs. Czech Republic

Novak Djokovic was scheduled to play against Radek Stepanek in the opening day's singles match, but he was forced to withdraw due to medical reasons. Novak, who surely would have beaten Radek, was replaced by Viktor Troicki who was, unfortunately, beaten in four sets by Stepanek. It seemed like the Czechs were going to win the next match as well, as Janko Tipsarevic was scheduled to play against the world number 7 Tomas Berdych, but Tipsarevic pulled off the win to even the score at 1-1. Djokovic and Zimonjic are currently playing doubles against Berdych and Stepanek, with the Serbians winning the first set and the Czechs winning the second.
