With the successive withdrawals of Alcaraz, Davidovich Fokina, and Granollers, the Spanish team will have to make do without two major singles players and a doubles specialist to face Denmark (September 13).

This situation was commented on by the current team captain, David Ferrer, in an interview relayed by Punto de Break:

"We accept it; these are things that can happen. Nothing more. I don't want to waste any more time lamenting those who could be here and those who are not. I trust my team: they have all made their Davis Cup debuts, and whether you like it or not, that is an advantage when it comes to a new encounter.

Jaume and Roberto made their debuts against Switzerland, and I know they will give their best. That reassures me, beyond victory or defeat, because I know they will be able to compete."

Thus, Spain will be composed of Jaume Munar, Pedro Martinez, Roberto Carballes Baena, and Pablo Carreño Busta.

Since February 2022 and the invasion of Ukraine by Russia, Ukrainian sport has been heavily affected by human, structural and economic losses. Tennis has, of course, not been spared. While Ukrainian athletes have had to rethink their entire organization, an entire country, behind the scenes, has had to adapt and change its training conditions. This extends all the way to the highest level, where professional players have spoken out, trying as best they can to help their nation.

why did tennis tonic void predictions on the match between Chwalinska and Huergo at the Quito tournament? The match was played to completion and on time. If TT feels the match is one sided, and of course it was, then don't put it up for prediction. This is getting irritating.

The finals are here, and we scramble for the best finish. I've been chasing "King" all year and I was able to shrink the spread a little. Skelp is also closing the gap.

Seasons best to all the regulars in our league.

Will you all be back in the new year.?

Steffi Graf completed a Golden Slam (not just a career Grand Slam) when she was 19. She is the only person to accomplish that, winning the four majors plus Olympic gold the same calendar year.
