Hewitt makes the most of dead rubber

Hewitt's focus now moves to the French Open.

Making the most of his disrupted French Open countdown, Lleyton Hewitt played his first dead singles rubber in 10 years to help Australia to a Davis Cup clean sweep over Japan.

Spectators at Pat Rafter Arena were pleasantly surprised when Hewitt was announced for Sunday’s opening reverse singles rubber, despite Australia holding an unbeatable lead.

And Hewitt did not disappoint by getting the result – overcoming a spirited Yuichi Sugita 7-5, 6-2 in 82 minutes.
