DC UPDATE from "Fitzgerald hits the roof" in The Age

[...]

There is growing speculation that Lopez will play singles on Friday, and that he could replace world No. 3 Juan Carlos Ferrero, who has had sinusitis and endured the worst week of an outstanding year to lose all three matches at the Masters Cup.

As improbable as that would seem, one benefit for Spain of a reshuffle would be the elevation of Carlos Moya to No. 1, meaning the former Australian Open finalist would play newly demoted local No. 2 Lleyton Hewitt - whom he leads 5-3 in career meetings - on Friday, while Mark Philippoussis plays Lopez.

"Of course, I always expect to play because I want to play, but it is not always possible to play in this team because there are great players here," said Ferrero, whose body language was judged by several Spanish reporters to be more revealing. "I'm not the only one player that can play good here."

Whoa... didn't see that one! Up till now I thought they might consider replacing Moya but not JC!! Anyway, the draws will be officially released Thursday so I guess we'll just have to wait and see ^^
