MONTREAL — Marie-Eve Pelletier of Repentigny, Que., will replace Vancouver’s Rebecca Marino on Canada’s Fed Cup team, Tennis Canada announced Thursday.
Marino was forced to withdraw from the event due to unspecified family matters.
Pelletier will join Stephanie Dubois of Laval, Que., Toronto’s Sharon Fichman and Aleksandra Wozniak of Blainville, Que., on the Canadian team.
Canada will take part in the Fed Cup’s Americas Zone Group I event schedule for Curitba, Brazil, from Jan. 30 to Feb. 4.
