Golubic hit back to beat former U.S. Open champion Bianca Andreescu 2-6 6-3 6-4 before Bencic beat Leylah Fernandez 6-0 7-5 to give last year's runners-up an unassailable lead. Friday's clash between the Swiss and the Canadians was effectively a group decider after both teams beat Italy. Golubic replaced Jil Teichmann and initially the switch appeared to be backfiring for the Swiss as Andreescu ran away with the opening set. Bencic then came out all guns blazing against Fernandez to race through the opening set, but the Canadian dug deep in an absorbing second set before Bencic wrapped up victory. Gauff never quite found her form in the second set, putting up 19 unforced errors as a near-flawless Siniakova never faced a break and roared with triumph after closing the affair 7-6(1) 6-1 for the 2018 champions.

Subscriber growth We think Netflix's quarter offers a positive read-through for Disney on the streaming front. That's important, even though we've argued for months that Wall Street's intense focus on Disney's streaming ambitions means the company's booming theme park business gets somewhat overlooked. Netflix brought its streaming service to over 130 countries across the world more than three years before Disney's flagship streaming service, Disney+, hit the U.S. and Canadian markets in the fall of 2019. Even in a period of decline for Netflix, Disney+ was able to keep growing solidly. Analysts expect the company to have added 9.1 million Disney+ subscribers in its fourth quarter, according to FactSet.
