Script:

SOUNDBITE: (English) Milos Raonic, Canada:

"It's a great opportunity. First of al, just from the fact that it's Davis Cup and you want to do well and I've, been fortunate enough to play great singles here in, in Vancouver and the rest of Canada. So I'd like to keep that going and really just got to go out there and take care of business and, try to find a way to win."

SOUNDBITE: (English) Kei Nishikori, Japan (on playing away from home):

"For me, I just need to play good tennis on the court, so it's.... actually for me it's, it's all the same. Maybe he got more support, but, I have a good team here around me and I've been playing well, so it should be okay."

SOUNDBITE: (English) Milos Raonic, Canada (on winning on home soil):

"I've been able to do it here, a few times now and just to have that opportunity again, it would be great, but it's a long weekend, a lot of tennis has got to be played and there's going to be some interesting storylines to develop."

SOUNDBITE: (English) Kei Nishikori, Japan (on playing in front of a partisan crowd):

"I try to, focus (on) just myself. When I'm playing good I don't hear anything, so, it doesn't matter where I play."
