Vekic started off with victory over Naef 6-3, 6-4, before Coric sealed victory over Riedl winning 6-1, 6-4 to seal the title.

Switzerland are among one of the most successful teams in the event, they have won four titles including the 2019 crown but despite Belinda Bencic's withdrawal, the young Swiss team reached the final but ran out of steam in Nice.
