Not much to say. Davis Cup keeps everything a secret until one hr before start time, and even now we don't have OFFICIAL line-ups, even if I have seen some floating around.

By:

EatMySalada When: 18 Nov 19 14:34

Line ups will come ever few time before matches?

By:

TGMTEL When: 18 Nov 19 14:59

they say they're working on it, but who knows? It doesn't help that line-ups only were announced 30 mins before the 1st tie.

By:

TGMTEL When: 18 Nov 19 14:59

If Betfair still has this muggy rule that they can't put markets up after they have started, we're screwed.

By:

SabineIsGOAT When: 18 Nov 19 15:05

are there even streams for this?

By:

SabineIsGOAT When: 18 Nov 19 15:09

nvm streams are up

By:

TGMTEL When: 18 Nov 19 15:12

365? I get error code s153.

By:

Looks like no streams for edy

no streams either. 365 telling me they won't be streaming this muggy tournament. But that doesn't really mean anything.

Team Captains have until 1 hour before the start of the tie to nominate their players for the two singles and doubles.

By:

TGMTEL When: 18 Nov 19 15:22

looks like we all need to go to sig and watch streams.

and then it took DC another 30 mins to announce this. Which meant bookies didn't get up markets in time, and Betfair just put its market up 2 mins before starting time resulting in illiquid markets. And now no streams What a flop.

Davis Cup streams for edy on nando's after all.

I guess I should've mentioned the highlight of this week: The Solarino W25 being an outdoor carpet tournament on Sicily. A carpet that today in qualies looked like someone should clean it though.

By:

edy When: 18 Nov 19 15:35

and you know who is the top seed at that really cool carpet tournament? Monica Niculescu!

By:

wisewords When: 18 Nov 19 15:39

wow, really?

By:

edy When: 18 Nov 19 15:41

yes, really. It also has the future of British tennis in the draw, who states on her ITF profile

Personal Interests:
Has a twin sister who also plays and enjoys tennis. They train together all the time. Intends to learn how to Vlog having just bought a new camera.

How cool is that? Normally it's just "music, friends, reading"

Can you believe Italy doesn't have Paolo Lorenzi on its team? This is their team instead

Italy
Matteo Berrettini
Fabio Fognini
Lorenzo Sonego
Andrea Seppi
Simone Bolelli
Captain: Corrado Barazzutti

...ah well...Paolo will just own everyone on the sweet indoor clay courts of the Maia Challenger instead.

By:

edy When: 18 Nov 19 16:01

...Just noticed Davis Cup stole a letter from Seppi's first name.

By:

edy When: 18 Nov 19 16:11

Countries were allowed to nominate five players for the Davis Cup Finals, but two of the 18 participating federations were only able to find four players - Russia and Great Britain

By:

edy When: 18 Nov 19 16:14

No wait, the list on the official Davis Cup website is outdated. Team GB found Kyle Edmund to fill the roster up with.

Paolo is better suited for Bo5 Davis Cup

Elahi Galan obviously motivated by the Davis Cup website staff making it sound like Goffin would have a walkover no matter his opponent...

By:

TGMTEL When: 18 Nov 19 17:30

never heard of Galan.

I've watched him play a few challengers this year and have no idea how Goffin is struggling with him

Maia might be an even worse tournament than Meerbusch.
