USA takes on Austria
PARIS: The United States has an unchanged team at its disposal as it begins the defence of its Davis Cup crown with an away tie to Austria on Friday.
World top 10 players, Andy Roddick and James Blake, will once again play the singles while the top doubles team of Bob and Mike Bryan complete a formidable line-up. The Americans defeated Russia 4-1 at Portland, Oregon last December for their first victory in the premier team tennis event since 1995 and will be in confident mood going into Vienna.
The Austrians, however, have a strong trio of players in Jurgen Melzer, Julian Knowle and Stefan Koubek and they will be looking to get a strong boost from a packed crowd at the Vienna Hallenstadion.
The World Group (first round): Russia vs Serbia, Czech Republic vs Belgium, Argentina vs Britain, Israel vs Sweden, Germany vs South Korea, Peru vs Spain, Romania vs France, Austria vs United States. — AFP
