This weekend Belarusians will see a big sport event at Chizhovka-Arena. The women's national tennis team of Belarus will try to keep its place in the first world group of the Federation Cup, where the eight strongest teams in the world play. To do this, our girls in the main match of the year need to beat the team of Slovakia. The draw for the tournament will be held on Friday, and the duels are scheduled on Saturday and Sunday.

Due to health problems, the leaders of the Slovak national team Dominika Cibulkova and Magdalena Rybarikova did not come to Minsk. But the most positive emotions after the victory at the ground tournament in Bogota were taken by Anna Karolína Schmiedlová.

Matej Liptak, captain of women's tennis team: "The rating of Belarus is much better, and your team is the favorite. But we have nothing to lose, we have two serious and experienced players, previously included in the top 30 and in the top 50 of the world rating, and 2 young and promising athletes. I always say that the rating is a rating, and the Federation Cup matches are completely different, so we will see that on the court."

In the event of a victory over Slovakia, our tennis players will retain their place in the strongest division of the Federation Cup - only 8 teams play here.
