Whether the new format of the Davis Cup finals will be a success can probably only be estimated after the week in Madrid. There have been some rejecting remarks, Alexander Zverev was about to speak out from the beginning against a participation, the German team is now with Jan-Lennard Struff number one in the Bütt.
After all: with Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal, the two best players in the world have decided to make an appearance in the Caja Magical, even Daniil Medvedev, the newcomer of the season, could play a role in the title with the Russian team.
Griezmann, Gretzky, Marquez - world champions and legends
The organizers for football world champion Gerard Piqué have not lumped. And to the application of the event from 18 to 24 November, a star muster gathered, probably unparalleled. Wayne Gretzky shows himself here, with Antoine Griezmann or Ricky Rubio, two reigning world champions in football and basketball, the Russian pole vault legend Jelena Issinbayeva or the incomparable motorcycle artist Marc Marquez. And in the end, of course, the landlord himself, Rafael Nadal.
Nothing less than the world championship title in tennis should go to Madrid to support the national teams by the fans. A nice thought, the known but also the ATP has taken up. And at the beginning of 2020 countered with the ATP Cup in Australia. With even better cast. So far but without promotional video.
