Israel (ranked 8th in the Davis Cup standings, with 5,394 points) hosted heavily favored Russia (which won in both 2002 and 2006, and was the top- ranked country in Davis Cup standings, with 27,897 points) in a Davis Cup quarterfinal tie in July 2009, on indoor hard courts at the Nokia Arena in Tel Aviv. Israel was represented by Levy, Dudi Sela, Jonathan Erlich, and Andy Ram. Russia’s lineup consisted of Marat Safin (# 24 in the world; former world
1), Igor Andreev (26), Igor Kunitsyn (35), and Mikhail Youzhny (44; former
world # 8). “I believe we can do it against Russia”, predicted Levy. The stage was set by Safin, who prior to the tie told the press: “With all due respect, Israel was lucky to get to the quarterfinals.” The Israeli team’s response was to beat the Russian team in each of their first three matches, thereby winning the tie. Levy was aware that the Russians thought he was incapable of playing at their level, let alone beating Russia’s top player, Andreev. Levy, ranked what the Russian press referred to as a “lowly” world # 210, beat Andreev, world # 24, 6–4, 6–2, 4–6, 6–2 in the opening match. Levy said: “I had a feeling Andreev couldn’t hurt me in any way, while I could do almost anything, and that made me very calm. I forced him to feel very uncomfortable on the court, lowering his confidence, and his game became more simple.” Sela (# 33) followed by beating Russian Youzhny 3–6, 6–1, 6–0, 7–5. Israeli captain Eyal Ran likened his players to two fighter jets on court, saying: “I felt as if I had two F-16s out there today, they played amazingly well.” The 10,500 spectators were the largest crowd ever for a tennis match in Israel.
