[TORONTO, ON] September 19, 2024 – Team Canada has been drawn against Germany in the quarter-
finals of the 2024 Davis Cup, the ITF confirmed on Thursday. The Final 8 Knockout Stage will take place
in Malaga, Spain from November 19-24.

Canada, ranked No.3, last faced Germany (No. 5) in the quarter-finals of their 2022 Davis Cup title-
winning campaign. A singles victory for Felix Auger-Aliassime over Oscar Otte and Denis Shapovalov and
Vasek Pospisil’s doubles win against Tim Puetz and Kevin Krawietz secured their passage into the semi-
finals.

Led by captain Frank Dancevic, the Canadian team featuring Auger-Aliassime, Shapovalov, Gabriel
Diallo, Alexis Galarneau and Pospisil sealed their place in the Final 8 during last week’s Group Stage in
Manchester, UK. They won all three ties, against Argentina, Finland and Great Britain respectively, to top
Group D.

Three-time Davis Cup champions Germany, meanwhile, finished second in Group C with a 2-1 record
having lost to group winners the United States and beating Slovakia and Chile in Zhuhai, China.
The winner of the tie between Canada and Germany, set to take place between November 19-21, will
face either Spain or the Netherlands, who contest the other quarter-final in the bottom half of the draw, in
the semi-finals.
