Swiss Fed Cup team consists of Romina Oprandi (WTA-67), Stefanie Voegele (WTA-100), Timea Bacsinszky (WTA-185) and Amra Sadikovic (WTA-236). Oprandi can be tricky but if our girls play well we should win this tie.

Hopefully it gets to 3-0 so the youngsters also get a chance to play in the dead rubbers :)

Mestach is still injured ? :sad:

I think I would have picked Benoit over Bonaventure and ignored the ranking rather looking at recent match results.

Re: week 6: Fed Cup, Grenoble-$25k
 

I think Mestach is indeed still injured.
Benoit has had some good results lately but let's not forget it has been in rather weak 10k's. Ysaline hasn't really done much but she played in bigger tournaments. So it's a toss-up really. She will only play in case there's a dead rubber anyway.

Is there any chance that we can watch the fed cup on livestream?
They don't show it on tv :sad:

Re: week 6: Fed Cup, Grenoble-$25k
 

Just try: http://www.streamhunter.eu/tennis-li...ing-video.html
Tomorrow they will probably show some streams.

Re: week 6: Fed Cup, Grenoble-$25k
 

Yesterday it was there, but now it's gone :(
They don't stream it :confused: :sad:

Re: week 6: Fed Cup, Grenoble-$25k
 

Yes it seems there is no stream for us while there is one for all the others meetings from world group I and II :o What a shame ! That was the same against Japan..

Re: week 6: Fed Cup, Grenoble-$25k
 

I don't get it why they don't show it :mad:
GRMBL, so wanted to see it! Maybe tomorrow? :help:

Re: week 6: Fed Cup, Grenoble-$25k
 

Don't understand either :o I think we can even forget it for tomorrow :(

Fed Cup

Yanina Wickmayer BEL def. Stefanie Voegele SUI 6-1 4-6 8-6 :unsure:
Romina Oprandi SUI def. Kirsten Flipkens BEL 6-3 6-3 :(

The Swiss are definitely more tough than expected. Good thing Yanina managed to win in the end, if we would have been 2-0 down by now... :help:
Please do better tomorrow girls!!
