Aussies choose grass for final
Australia have opted to play this year's Davis Cup final against Spain on grass. The Spanish clay-court specialists fare less well on grass, which has been Australia's preferred choice.
Lleyton Hewitt won at Wimbledon in 2002 and Mark Philippoussis was a finalist at SW19 this year.
A portable grasscourt will now be installed at Melbourne's Rod Laver Arena for the final, which begins on 28 November.
