Ranked 50th in the world, French No.1 Diane Parry will face Colombian Emiliano Arango (180th) on Saturday to open the BJK Cup play-off between the two countries, according to the draw made on Friday. The match, on open-air clay at an altitude of more than 2,600 m, will begin at 11:00 a.m. in Bogota (5:00 p.m. in France) and will be followed by a second singles match between Clara Burel (74th) and Colombian leader Camila Osorio (63rd), indicates the French Tennis Federation in a press release detailing the outcome of the draw.
Sunday will begin at the same time with a match between the leaders of the two selections, Diane Parry and Camila Osorio, followed by a Burel-Arango duel.
