SANTIAGO, Chile (AP)—The Davis Cup matches between Chile and Israel in Coquimbo have been delayed for a day because of the earthquake, and will start on Saturday and finish on Monday.
The International Tennis Federation announced the decision on Wednesday, four days after an earthquake and tsunami killed about 800 people in Chile.
The site for the World Group first-round tie, Enjoy Tennis Center, was unaffected and the local airport was open, the ITF said, but transportation issues had delayed the arrival of players and officials.
The ITF has asked for a minute of silence at the start of all eight World Group ties this week.
