United States Vs. Colombia Davis Cup by BNP Paribas 2010 World Group Play-Off Plaza De Toros La Santamaria Bogota, Colombia * September 17-19 United States vs. Colombia Davis Cup by BNP Paribas 2010 World Group Play-off Plaza de Toros La Santamaria Bogota, Colombia * September 17-19 For more information, contact: Tim Curry, +1-914-826-6030, [email protected] PREVIEW NOTES – DAY ONE The 2010 Davis Cup by BNP Paribas World Group Play-off between the United States and Colombia will take place from Friday, September 17, to Sunday, September 19, in Bogota, Colombia, at the Plaza de Toros La Santamaria on an outdoor red clay court. The United States is 3-1 in World Group Play-offs since the World Group was instituted in 1981. The country’s last Play-off took place in 2005, when the U.S. defeated Belgium 4-1 in Belgium on a clay court. The U.S.’s only Play-off loss came in 1987, after which it spent one year in the Americas Zone, in 1988. The U.S. has competed in the World Group every year since and holds the longest uninterrupted run in the World Group of any competing nation. Colombia will be competing for a spot in the World Group for the first time in its 43-year history in the competition. The United States and Colombia hold an even 1-1 record in Davis Cup competition. The two nations have not faced each other since 1979, when the U.S. team faced the Colombians in the North & Central America second round at the Cleveland Skating Club in Ohio. The U.S. swept Colombia 5-0 in that tie on an indoor hard court. The U.S. and Colombia also met in the same division and round in 1974, with the U.S. losing 4-1 in Bogota. The U.S. last played in South America in 1997, when the country faced Brazil in the World Group first round on clay and won 4-1. The last time the U.S. played south of the equator was in 2000 in the World Group first round, defeating Zimbabwe 3-2 in a decisive fifth singles match on a hard court. Also, in this tie, the U.S. Davis Cup team will be competing at its highest-ever elevation; Bogota is 8,626 feet above sea level. Since the competition began in 1900, the United States has faced 39, posting a 208-64 record (most wins by any nation in the event). The U.S. has a winning record against 35 countries, a level record with two countries, and a losing record against two nations. The U.S. is undefeated versus 21 countries and holds an active winning streak against 33 of the 39 nations it has faced. ORDER OF PLAY The opening day of play in the best-of-five match series features each country’s No. 1 singles player against the No. 2 player from the opposing country. The exact order of play (which country’s No. 1 plays first) was determined at the Draw Ceremony, which was held today at the Plaza de Toros La Santamaria. The second day of competition features the pivotal doubles match. The event concludes Sunday with the “reverse singles,” starting with each country’s No. 1 player squaring off followed by the No. 2 players. Each match is best-of-five-sets until one nation wins three matches and clinches the tie. The remaining matches, if any, are played as best-of-three sets. DAY/LOCAL TIME EVENT DETAILS/PAIRING Friday, 10 a.m. Singles A: Mardy Fish (USA) vs. Alejandro Falla (COL) Singles B: Sam Querrey (USA) vs. Santiago Giraldo (COL) Saturday, 11 a.m. Doubles: Ryan Harrison/John Isner (USA) vs. Robert Farah/Carlos Salamanca Sunday, 10 a.m. Singles C: Fish (USA) vs. Giraldo Singles D: Querrey (USA) vs. Falla *Team captains may substitute the doubles team up to one hour before the match. CHANGING OF THE GUARD U.S. Davis Cup Captain Patrick McEnroe is bringing a new lineup to this World Group Play-off in Mardy Fish, Sam Querrey, John Isner and rising American talent Ryan Harrison. For the first time, McEnroe’s lineup will include neither Andy Roddick, James Blake nor the Bryan brothers. This will also be the last tie for McEnroe, the longtime U.S. Davis Cup captain. Currently in his 10th year as captain, McEnroe is the longest-tenured captain in U.S. Davis Cup history. He led the U.S. to its record 32nd Davis Cup title in 2007, its first title since 1995—ending the longest drought in U.S. Davis Cup history. His 16 victories rank second all-time in U.S. Davis Cup history behind Tom Gorman’s 18.

  • The Best Mexican Couple Surpassed the Best Couple in History at Plaza Mexico
    The Best Mexican Couple Surpassed the Best Couple in History at Plaza Mexico Mexico City, November 23, 2019 - Mexico won the doubles match against the United States, in a match that opened the square for the exhibition of The Greatest Match, with a brilliant performance by Santiago Gonzalez and Miguel Ángel Reyes Varela, against the historic pair of twins, Mike and Bob Bryan. The match was celebrated with a great entry of people, who came in early to fill the stands, and began with the dominance of the Davis Cup Mexican couple, who managed to break Mike Bryan's serve once in the third game of the match, winning it by 6-3. The American brothers did not want to say goodbye to the show so soon and dominated the second set, breaking Reyes-Varela serve and sending the encounter to a final super tie break, with a partial 4-6. The most spectacular moment of the day was experienced during this second set, with a rally in which all four players participated and which was defined in favor of the Mexicans, with a crossed volley by Santiago Gonzalez. The duel ended unexpectedly, when the Mexican couple took a 9-0 advantage in the tiebreaker, which ended with a partial 10-2. The audience roared a spectacular ovation for Santy and Micky from the stands, who won a cash prize of $20,000, but, above all, the people’s recognition on a day that will be marked in history. “It was an incredible experience. We had a great time on the court.

You'll have to wait and see what that is. But lets go ahead and get to the interview. Sit back, relax, and get ready for some great tennis instruction. My guest today on the podcast is ATP touring professional Ashley Fisher. He is actually currently coaching and is up in Canada getting ready for a tournament there with his Doubles team. Ashley, just to give you guys a little background, has had a career high ranking in the ATP Doubles tour of number 19. He's played in the main draw of all four grand-slam tournaments, and he's got a best result in the Grand Slams of making it to the semi-finals and the U.S. Open. Ashley, thank you very much for sending some time with me and to answer some questions from my listeners. Ashley: Your welcome, Ian. Good evening. Ian: Well, let's start things off by telling myself, my listeners a little bit more about yourself. I just gave a kind of a really brief overview of what you've done so far, but you're a Doubles specialist, you're from Australia, tell us a little bit more about your background as a player. Ashley: Well I grew up playing Junior tennis in Australia until I was eighteen years of age at which point I moved over to the U.S.
