Watch the day’s clashes between the maple leaf and the United Kingdom from 11 a.m. on TVA Sports.

Champion in 2023, Canada will have a lot to do to reach the final four. Rebecca Marino and Marina Stakusic, as well as doubles specialist Gabriela Dabrowski, will have to take over in the absence of Bianca Andreescu. Among her rivals, Katie Boulter ranks 24th in the world, compared to 31st for Fernandez. The Union Jack representatives can also bet on Emma Raducanu (58th), 2021 US Open champion, and Harriet Dart (88th).

A victory on Sunday would allow Canada to face Slovakia in the final four.
