2020 Western & Southern Open Doubles Field
Western & Southern Open Defending Champions Headline Doubles Fields CINCINNATI (Aug. 11, 2020) – Both the women’s and men’s defending champions are among the initial entries to play doubles at the 2020 Western & Southern Open, which will be held Aug. 20-28 at the USTA Billie Jean King Tennis Center in New York. The 2019 WTA doubles winners – Lucie Hradecka and Andreja Klepac – are joined by the ATP Tour champions – Ivan Dodig and Filip Polasek – to headline the early entries. Other notable entries on the women’s side include the teenage pairing of Cincinnati’s 18-year-old Caty McNally and 16-year-old Coco Gauff. Dubbed “McCoco,” the duo won a pair of WTA titles in 2019 – at Washington, D.C. and Luxembourg – and reached the US Open Round of 16. Elise Mertens and Aryna Sabalenka, who finished 2019 atop the WTA Porsche Race to Shenzen as the season’s No. 1 team, are also in the field. Reigning Australian Open singles champion Sofia Kenin, a 21-year- old American, has entered with former Western & Southern Open singles and doubles winner Victoria Azarenka. The top two teams in the ATP Tour doubles race are entered in the men’s draw. The No. 1 team of Juan Sebastian Cabal and Robert Farah is returning after reaching two straight Western & Southern Open finals. They are joined in the field by the No. 2 team of Lukasz Kubot and Marcelo Melo. The ATP Tour No. 1 ranked singles player, Novak Djokovic, has entered the doubles draw with countryman Filip Krajinovic. An additional five women’s teams and six men’s duos will join the fields through on-site entries, while the tournament will award three wild cards into each draw to complete the 32-team fields. -

ADCTF News Oct 2015
The Australian Davis Cup Tennis Foundation News Produced for Members of the Foundation ABN 90 004 905 060 October 2015 Britain defeats Australia in Davis Cup Semi-Final Congratulations to the British Davis Cup team led by Andy Murray which defeated Australia 3-2 in a hard fought match in Glasgow from 17-19 September. Murray won both his singles and teamed with his brother John to edge out Groth and Hewitt in five sets in the crucial doubles rubber. Murray received fantastic support from the 8000 strong crowd which was also appreciative of Lleyton Hewitt playing in what was to be his final Davis Cup match. The Australian team showed great fighting spirit and camaraderie and, with the recall of Kyrgios, will be a force to be reckoned with in Davis Cup in the next few years. It is anticipated that Hewitt will take over from Masur as Captain in 2016. Page !1 Around the traps…… Put up your hand if someone has taken your seat! Australian Captain Wally Masur is giving Sam Groth a go as Captain during Kokkinakis’ dead rubber so that he can have a chat with mate Pat Cash. Sam did a good job as Kokkinakis had an impressive straight sets win. Australia v USA The next tie will be in Australia from 6-8 March 2016 against our old rivals, the USA. Melbourne Park Tour Neale Fraser will be conducting a guided tour of Melbourne Park for ADCTF Members on Monday 16 November. 10.30 am to 12 noon, cost $20 (includes cup of coffee). -
