RE: Davis Cup - Euro Africa Zone I Play-offs - GBR v Poland 18-20 September 2009


Looks like JL is pinning his hopes of a 3rd point on Evo (not that it's inconceivable that Hutch & Fleming could manage an upset in the doubles) - from LTA twitter:

"John Lloyd picks Andy Murray, Dan Evans, Ross Hutchins and Colin Fleming for DC team 2 face Poland"

Friday 12.00 BST

Match 1: Andy Murray WR 3 v Michal Przysiezny WR 678
Match 2: Dan Evans WR 302 v Jerzy Janowicz WR 261 - the long-awaited battle between two of the top teenagers in the world

Saturday 14.30 BST

Match 3: Colin Fleming WR 101/Ross Hutchins WR 37 v Mariusz Fyrstenberg WR 14/Marcin Matkowski WR 13

Sunday 13.00 BST

Match 4: Andy Murray WR 3 v Jerzy Janowicz WR 261
Match 5: Dan Evans WR 302 v Michal Przysiezny WR 678

Saturday & Sunday line-ups subject to change as usual.

Przysiezny has a career high of 190 from 2007 so is not as weak as his current ranking makes him look! Janowicz reached a career high of 229 last month.

Edit: I see Polish characters don't work on here LOL

Very approximate Polish players name guide - feel free to improve on it if you actually speak the language rather than just pretending to know a bit of it like me!

"ih" below is like the i in lid, "zh" like the s in leisure, "en" like a very nasalised version of the e in egg.

MEE-how Przhih-SHENZH-nih
YE-zhy Ya-NO-veech
MAR-yoosh FIHR-sten-berg
MAR-cheen Mat-KOV-skee

LOL I looked at your first attempt and thought "what?!" then saw your second smile

> Yerjey Yanovic
> Meehow Psshyesney
> Marchin Matcoughski
> Mariush Fisstenberg
> Capt: Radosauve Schemanic

I think mine are a bit closer from the point of view of an English person trying to say the names (though your versions might look closer to a Pole, if that makes any sense) but Radosuave is spot on biggrin

The DC site says Wardy is the 4th player not Colin (at odds with LTA twitter) and it will be Muzza with Hutch in the doubles. Hmm ...

hmm indeed.

I think if Evo wins Fleming plays dubs but if he doesn't Muzza does.

Reckon LTA are just yet to update the DC peeps.

It now says Fleming is in the team, but Murray and Hutchins are still the doubles pairing.
