Philippoussis was a hero, winning both his ties, while the stalwart Woodies earned their first Davis Cup in what was going to be the final year of Mark Woodforde's participation. Woodforde later decided to continue for another year. Australia is the second most successful team with a total of 27 titles.  The last time Australia won a Cup Final on foreign soil was 1973 in Cleveland, when John Newcombe and the great Rod Laver demolished the Americans 5-0.
