Billie Jean King Cup 2024: Spain vs Poland postponed after severe weather warning in Malaga

A severe weather warning in southern Spain has led to the opening match of the Billie Jean King Cup between Spain and Poland being postponed.

The two countries were supposed to play in Malaga on Wednesday.

Two weeks after flash floods caused devastation in eastern Spain, several parts of the country are back on alert.

A new weather front brought heavy rain to Malaga on Wednesday.

“This decision has been made based on guidance from the relevant authorities to ensure the health and safety of all participants and attendees,” said the International Tennis Federation, which organizes the event.

“We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your understanding and cooperation.”
