De gauche à droite Matthieu Sarlangue, Nicolas Victoir, Charlie Hurstel et Tim Batten (Capitaine).
La Bathurst Cup, qui est l‘équivalent de la Coupe Davis de notre petit cousin, se déroulait du 13 au 18 mai dernier à Chicago.
L’équipe de France emmenée par son Capitaine Tim Batten (à droite sur la photo), comprenait Matthieu Sarlangue (hdcp 2), numéro 1 français et 12e mondial, Nicolas Victoir (hdcp 9) et Charles-Antoyne Hurstel (hdcp 16).
Bravo à l’Equipe de France qui a réussi la performance d’arriver en finale face à l’imbattable l’Angleterre en laissant les USA et l’Australie sur le carreau !
