| ITF Davis Cup Committee decision in the matter of Australia vs India |
The ITF’s Davis Cup Committee in a meeting held by conference call today decided that Australia would not be suspended from the 2010 competition or relegated from Asia/Oceania Zone Group I. Australia will lose choice of ground for their next home tie regardless of the opponent and will pay a fine of US$10,000. Australia will also be liable for costs to both the ITF and to the All India Tennis Association to be determined at a later date. The Davis Cup Committee is chaired by ITF Executive Vice President Juan Margets with Pierre Darmon (FRA), Enrique Morea (ARG), Neale Fraser (AUS) and Alan Schwartz (USA). Fraser recused himself from all votes.
