AUSTRALIAN wheelchair tennis ace Adam Kellerman led the way as the national side took out the BNP Paribas World Team Cup Group 2 title in Turkey.
Kellerman dropped just one set from his eight matches, which included group ties against Croatia and Sri Lanka, as well as Belgium in the first round of finals and then Greece in the ultimate playoff.
The title win sees Australia rejoin the world’s top group of teams for next year’s tournament.
The 22-year-old is now ranked 19th in the world for singles players and 20th for doubles and will hope to better his ranking in the coming months when he competes in sev- eral events across Europe.
Kellerman will play in the Plock Orlen Polish Open, before taking part in the SMP CZ Czech Open and the Slovakia Open over the coming weeks.
