Korea Team
Korea, where Kwon Soon-woo (700th place) and Hong Seong-chan (224th place, Sejong City Hall) lost in the 1st and 2nd singles matches the previous day, looked for a comeback by chasing with a mid-point score of 1-2.
In the final match held in Seoul last year, Korea lost the 1st and 2nd singles matches to Belgium, but won the doubles and 3rd and 4th singles matches on the second day to achieve a 3-2 comeback victory.
A similar scenario was envisioned this year, but Hong Seong-chan, who played 3 singles, lost 1-2 (5-7 6-4 1-6) to Gabriel Diallo (132nd) and could not advance to the final 4 singles match.
The 4th singles match is scheduled to be a match between Kwon Soon-woo and Pospisil (486th), but the match may not be played due to a replacement of player or agreement between both teams.
Korea, which advanced to the Davis Cup Finals, the world’s round of 16, in 2022 and 2023, failed to advance to the round of 16 of the Davis Cup for three consecutive years with this loss.
Korea has advanced to the round of 16 of the Davis Cup in 1981, 1987, 2007, 2022, and 2023.
With this loss, Korea was pushed back to the World Group 1 match scheduled for September this year.
If they win the World Group 1 game, they can advance to the final round again in February 2025, but if they lose the World Group 1 game, they will go down to the World Group 1 playoffs again.
