Three rookie singles players in Switzerland03 Mar 2005 - Expo Centre, Fribourg, SUI - Marco Keller www.daviscup.com/news/newsarticle.asp?id=13148Marco Chiudinelli (SUI) v Sjeng Schalken (NED) Stanislas Wawrinka (SUI) v Peter Wessels (NED) Yves Allegro/George Bastl (SUI) v Raemon Sluiter/Peter Wessels (NED) Stanislas Wawrinka (SUI) v Sjeng Schalken (NED) Marco Chiudinelli (SUI) v Peter Wessels (NED) The Davis Cup by BNP Paribas tie between Switzerland and The Netherlands will be one with plenty of fresh blood. In fact, three of the four players, who are nominated for the first day of singles, have no live singles match under their belt. In Fribourg, Marco Chiudinelli (ATP 150) will open the tie on Friday against Dutch leader Sjeng Schalken (ATP 73), then Stanislas Wawrinka (ATP 118) will assume the Swiss leadership in an all-rookie-match against Peter Wessels (ATP 78). In the doubles, Yves Allegro/George Bastl are announced for Switzerland, while the Dutch will rely on Raemon Sluiter/Wessels, before on Sunday, the number 1 and 2 of the countries battle it out, respectively. In the absence of Roger Federer and injured Michel Kratochvil, the host nations hopes this time rest on the broad shoulders of Wawrinka. The 19-year-old, French Open Junior champion in 2003, recently proved his indoor value by beating Sébastien Grosjean in Rotterdam and by reaching the first indoor final of his career at a challenger in Andrézieux. The hard hitting baseliner, who lost one dead rubber in Romania 2004, is looking forward to the challenge, "I slowly feel that the tension building. I will do my best to handle it as well as possible." His opponent will have the same approach to the match. Despite being 26-years-old, big serving Wessels has no Davis Cup experience whatsoever. Some consider it a surprise that he was preferred to Sluiter, who holds a good record, but most experts think that Sluiter will play if there is a decisive rubber. While Swiss Marco Chiudinelli gets a deserved reward for his continuous progress over the last 18 months and has a style suitable for the slow Rebound Ace surface, Holland can rely on a long-proven contender in the first match. Sjeng Schalken has an impressive record in the Davis Cup by BNP Paribas competition, he has won 19 of 32 singles rubbers. After suffering almost a year from a severe mononucleosis, Schalken has only fully recovered recently, "for only one month I have been feeling better. I am strong again and very happy to play." The former US Open semifinalist will square off twice against complete rookies, but isn't sure yet whether this will turn out to be an advantage for him. "Everybody reacts different to pressure,” said the tall Dutchman. “Some will play better than in regular tournaments also with the aid of the crowd, some can't handle the pressure and play worse. We'll see tomorrow how it goes." The chances of the Swiss are, of course, majorly limited due to the absence of Roger Federer. The worlds best player is absent for the first time since 1998, as he wants to focus on his ranking right now. Federer had won 16 of the last 18 singles he played and has virtually been a one-man team. Captain Marc Rosset acknowledges the handicap but also sees it as a chance. "Of course, we would be much stronger with Roger. But the remaining players now have a chance to write a page in the tennis history of our country, said Rosset." Although the Dutch are clearly favoured by the ranking - they have three top-100-players while the Swiss have none. Captain Tjerk Bogtstra doesn't agree he commented "of course, they miss the best player in the world but I wouldn't say we are the favourites. We have to prove our strength on the court.”

both Chiudinelli and Wawrinka really put up a good fight yesterday. Stan needs more experience and he will be a good no. 2 here. He's got the tools. Just need to hone them. and he's only 19. good luck on the doubles today! Hopp, Schwizzz!

Swiss pair battle to keep Davis Cup hopes alive 2005-03-05 21:12:34 GMT (Reuters)
LONDON, March 5 (Reuters) - Yves Allegro and George Bastl went some way to achieving Davis Cup hero status in Switzerland on Saturday as they scrapped their way back from two sets down.
They beat Dutchmen Dennis van Scheppingen and Peter Wessels 5-7 4-6 7-6 7-5 9-7 to keep the Swiss alive in their World Group first round tie with the Netherlands.
Desperately missing world number one Roger Federer, who is focusing on the ATP tour, Switzerland looked buried trailing two sets to love having already lost both opening day singles.
But the Swiss fought their way back for an unlikely triumph to keep their country's hopes alive for at least one night.
Van Scheppingen, a late replacement for the not totally fit Raemon Sluiter, and Wessels started strongly and looked headed for a straightforward victory.
But the Swiss refused to accept defeat and claimed a famous victory despite Allegro's massive count of 17 double faults.
"I probably loaded too much pressure on my shoulders in the beginning", he said, "but it's great to come back."
However, the visitors still remain favorites.
In Sunday's first singles the experienced Sjeng Schalken is due to battle it out against Stanislas Wawrinka. Wessels then plays Marco Chiudinelli.
