Twelve countries will this weekend eye the finals of the Davis Cup, the venerable 120-year-old team competition suddenly confronted with the global spread of a

Defending champions Spain, 2019 runners-up Canada, semi-finalists Great Britain and Russia, as well as wild cards France and Serbia, are already assured of their spots in the Madrid finals in November. However, the anticipation over the 12 qualifying ties on Friday and Saturday has been replaced by deepening concern over the coronavirus which has killed over 3,000 people in more than 60 countries.

Injury-hit Japan number one Kei Nishikori said Thursday he had failed to recover from an elbow injury and will sit out his country's tie. A depleted Japan will also be without world number 48 Yoshihito Nishioka. India travel to 2005 and 2018 champions Croatia with 46-year-old doubles stalwart Leander Paes in the line-up as his final season as a pro winds down. Paes made his Davis Cup debut 30 years ago and boasts a career competition record of 92 wins and 35 losses.

The United States, champions on a record 32 times, are also set for an emotional two days in Honolulu against Uzbekistan. Twins Bob and Mike Bryan will play their last Davis Cup tie having already said they will retire for good after the US Open. Taylor Fritz, Tommy Paul and Reilly Opelka are all ranked in the top 60 in singles for the US. Uzbekistan doesn't have one player even in the top 150.
