Davis Cup debutant Matthew Ebden and Chris Guccione have claimed straight-sets victories in the reverse singles of the Asia-Oceania tie in Geelong, giving Australia a 5-0 clean sweep over China.

With Australia holding an unbeatable 3-0 overnight lead, Pat Rafter took the chance to rest stars Lleyton Hewitt and Bernard Tomic for Sunday’s dead reverse singles.

Ebden, the world No.83, grabbed his opportunity by beating Ya-Nan Ma 6-4 6-2.

And Guccione celebrated his first Cup singles match in three years with a 6-2 6-2 win over Wu Di.

Australia’s victory at the Geelong Lawn Tennis Club advances them to the final round of Asia-Oceania qualifying, in which they will host South Korea from April 6-8.

The winner advances to a World Group playoff clash in September.
