The “Azzurri” for the Davis Cup game Canada - Italy

The 29-year-old from Kalter is number 1 in the Italian team. He is currently ranked 19th in the ATP world rankings. Seppi made his debut in the Davis Cup in 2004 and has so far made 23 appearances in singles (12 wins and 11 defeats) and 4 in doubles (2 wins, 2 defeats). Corrado Barazzutti will certainly use him in the singles against Canada, while there is still a big question mark over Simone Bolelli's appearance in the doubles. On Saturday, Bollelli injured his right pulse at the tournament in Miami and had to retire.

The Canadians' big star is the 22-year-old Milos Raonic, number 16 in the world. The second singles player, however, will be determined between Vasek Pospisil (ATP 129) and Frank Dancevic (ATP 189), while number 5 in the world rankings, Daniel Nestor, is the fixed starter in doubles. The Davis Cup match will take place on the hard courts at the Doug Mitchell Thunderbird Sports Center, a facility that holds 6.200 spectators. Canada beat Spain 3-2 in the round of 3 at this facility, while Italy also beat Croatia 2-XNUMX in Turin. Canada and Italy face each other for the first time in the Davis Cup.
