Re: World Group Rd 1 - Russia vs. Serbia
Looks like this will be the featured tie, which means live coverage in the US on TTC  |

Awesome! Good for TTC. Especially since the USA-Austria tie will probably be a blowout, while Serbia vs. Russia will be a pretty tight, probably. |

Re: World Group Rd 1 - Russia vs. Serbia
Well TTC doesn't get much choice (I don't think). They always show a 2nd tie in the early rounds and I think the one they show is whichever the ITF deems to be the 'featured tie' - the one that has international tv feeds, etc. I'm glad it's this one as at least on paper it should be the best (which is probably why it is the featured one anyway ) |

Re: World Group Rd 1 - Russia vs. Serbia
I know Viktor might not be able to play in this tie, but could he have been committed to play here and at Poland in the same week?

Considering he's never actually been on the team before, he probably committed, and now that he's been named, withdraw  They usually take Bozoljac, or Pashanski
