Slow Korean Courts Present Tough Hurdle, But India Ready For Davis Cup Challenge: Rohit Rajpal
Seoul Olympic Park Tennis Center: Expecting a stern challenge on 'slow courts', India’s Davis Cup non-playing captain Rohit Rajpal believes his unified squad is well-prepared to counter South Korea’s home advantage when the two sides meet in the World Group Qualifiers Round 2 in Seoul on September 18 and 19.
The games will be at the Seoul Olympic Park Tennis Center and carry huge importance – the winner will advance to the prestigious Davis Cup Final Eight, to be played in Bologna, Italy, in November. India, ranked 19th, last met 16th-ranked South Korea a decade ago in 2016 and secured a 4-1 victory on grass in Chandigarh.
India, who trails 6-5 in the head-to-head between the two nations, booked its place at this stage in similarly dramatic fashion, beating the Netherlands with a Dhakshineswar Suresh-inspired comeback.
