The decision was taken by Marterer's 4:6, 2:6 win over Brandon Nakashima. Squire had earlier come close to victory on his Davis Cup debut. However, 23-year-old Reilly lost to Opelka 7:6 (7:4), 6:7 (9:11), 3:6 after three unused match points.

Given 3-0 wins over Slovakia and Chile and already assured qualification for the Davis Cup final, team captain Michael Coleman somewhat surprisingly decided not to use Yannick Hanfmann.
Tim Pütz and Kevin Krawietz underlined just how important they can be in the final with a pointless doubles 6:1, 7:6 (7:4) win over top American pair Austin Krajicek and Rajiv Ram.
