Eisenhower Cup

The Eisenhower Cup will go on tonight at 10:30 PM EST with a replacement team for Paula Badosa and Stefanos Tsitsipas.  After Paula Badosa withdrew early in the day, there reportedly was a partner search for Stefanos Tsitsipas.

However, Tsitsipas is also sitting this one out, and Daniil Medvedev and Amanda Anisimova will be the eighth team to play Tiebreak Tens this evening.

Amanda Anisimova is an excellent choice.  She won the last installment of Tiebreak Tens in 2022 when it was an all-female singles event.  Anisimova is fresh off her Doha win and looking healthy and happy on and off the court.

Hardcourt specialist and quirky personality Daniil Medvedev wearing a microphone is always entertaining.

Eisenhower Cup Teams

The eight teams are as follows:

  1. Madison Keys and Tommy Paul
  2. Elena Rybakina and Taylor Fritz
  3. Iga Swiatek and Hubert Hurkacz
  4. Maria Sakkari and Casper Ruud
  5. Jasmine Paolini and Lorenzo Musetti
  6. Katie Boulter and Alex de Minaur
  7. Emma Navarro and Ben Shelton, defending champions
  8. Anisimova and Medvedev
