Head of Case Management, Catherine Pitre said: “We are grateful to be assisting the ITF once again at their premier international team competitions in women’s and men’s tennis, the Davis Cup and Billie Jean King Cup Finals. The independence of our panels and procedures ensures the integrity of any required process, delivered by our carefully selected arbitrators with the support of the wider SR team. Our highly efficient and expedited process provides for the quick resolution of matters that may have a bearing on the remainder of the tournaments.”

The four group winners will qualify for the semi-finals.
