Uzbek Tennis Team Prepares for Crucial Davis Cup Clash in Hong Kong

The Uzbekistan national team has arrived in Hong Kong and is actively preparing for a decisive playoff tie in the Davis Cup World Group II, where they will face the Hong Kong team. The matches will take place at the legendary Victoria Park Tennis Stadium on September 13 and 14, starting at 14:00 Tashkent time each day.

This encounter carries huge significance: the winner will advance to World Group I next year, while the losing team will remain in Group II, missing the opportunity to play in the more prestigious tier.

Team Uzbekistan Line-up:

• Captain — Denis Istomin

• Coach — Pyotr Lebed

• Players: Khumoyun Sultanov, Sergey Fomin, Maksim Shin, Amir Milushev, Abdulaziz Usmanjonov, Damir Abdusamadov

The team is currently in the preparation stage, including training sessions, acclimatization, and familiarization with the courts — all in anticipation of the decisive tie.

Why It Matters

A victory would secure Uzbekistan’s place in World Group I, opening new horizons on the international tennis stage. The tie will be played on outdoor hard courts in the very heart of Hong Kong.
