Ferrero Must Wait to Level Tie
Failing light has put paid to Spain's Juan Carlos Ferrero bid to level the
tie against France today. Ferrero holds the crucial overnight advantage with
the score currently lying at 63 61 16 33 against Fabrice Santoro.
The Spaniard appeared to be breezing through the match, comfortably claiming
the first two sets. However, Santoro managed to claw his way back by taking
the third set with relative ease. Ferrero, apparently unfazed, claimed the
early break in the fourth set, only to be broken back by Santoro to level
the fourth set at 3-3 before play was suspended.
The match will resume at 11:30am local time on Saturday with the doubles
rubber commencing at least one and a half hours the end of the singles
rubber, the Entitlement to Rest Rule will be enforced.
The Entitlement to Rest rule is as follows:
A player who shall already have played more than forty five (45) games in
either Singles or Doubles shall not be called upon to play another match
on the same day, except with the consent of his Captain, and any player
so called upon shall be entitled to a rest of two hours between matches,
unless his Captain shall consent to a shorter period. If a player has
played forty five (45) games or less, any rest period shall be at the
discretion of the Referee.
The Referee for the tie is Soeren Friemel (GER).
