MELBOURNE - Australia’s Ajla Tomljanovic prevailed in a tense duel with Pauline Parmentier to level the Fed Cup final at 2-2 and force a doubles decider in Perth on Sunday.
Australia needed their number two to step up in the wake of Ash Barty’s shock defeat by Kristina Mladenovic, and the Croatia-born 26-year-old duly delivered with a rousing 6-4 7-5 win on debut in front of a baying crowd of 13,841. Mladenovic had earlier pulled France 2-1 ahead with a brave 2-6 6-4 7-6 win over world number one Barty.
Garcia was crushed 6-0 6-0 by Barty on Saturday after Tomljanovic endured a similarly torrid 6-1 6-1 loss to Mladenovic in the opening singles.“Julien and all the crowd and my team mates, we kept on fighting every single point,” the emotional 26-year-old said courtside.“Ashleigh’s world number one, she’s just a huge champion. I lost the first set but then it was about details.
