(February 2, 2024) The doubles team of No. 3 Austin Krajicek and No. 5 Rajeev Ram clinched the U.S. Davis Cup team’s spot in the Group Stage of the 2024 Davis Cup Finals on Friday in Vilnius, Lithuania, defeating a spirited Ukrainian team of No. 301 Vitaliy Sachko and No. 947 Illya Beloborodko, 6-3, 4-6, 6-3. Krajicek and Ram are now 4-1 together in Davis Cup doubles, and Ram improves 8-2 himself.
World No. 9 Taylor Fritz, having been subbed for Chris Eubanks on Thursday due to an injured right hip, recovered in time to finish off the tie, defeating Vladyslav Orlov, 6-3, 6-4, in a dead match to make the tie an even 4-0.
The Group Stage will be played across four TBD cities September 10-15. The top eight nations advancing out of Group Play will play in the Final 8 stage of the competition, a knockout-style quarterfinal bracket to be played in November in Malaga, Spain, that will crown the 2024 Davis Cup champion.
