(Reuters) - Ukraine has opted to host the Davis Cup World Group playoff tie against Belgium in Estonia after the International Tennis Federation (ITF) ordered the match to be moved out of Kiev over security concerns.

"The neutral venue was proposed by the Ukrainian Tennis Federation who retained choice of ground after the tie was unable to be staged in Ukraine," the ITF said in a statement on Tuesday.
