Haharapin ni Gonzales si Venus sa ganap na alas-4 ng hapon kasunod ang laro nina Arcilla at Statham sa singles match sa alas-6 ng gabi.

“It doesn’t matter whether I play the first singles or the second, what’s impportant is that I have gained some experience and confidence in the Davis Cup,” sabi ni Gonzales.

Tinalo na ni Gonzales si Venus sa NCAA Division I kung saan kinatawan ni Gonzales ang Illinois.

“We play the same style, strong serve, strong forehand but I’m more comfortable on this kind of surface,” sabi ni Gonzales.

Maliban kina Gonzales at Arcilla, ang dalawa pang kabilang sa National team ay sina Fil-Am Treat Conrad Huey at Francis Casey Alcantara.

Makakaharap nina Huey at Alcantara sina Artem Sitak at Marcus Daniell sa doubles event na nakatakda sa alas-6:00 ng gabi bukas.
