For the first time in his career, Fernando Verdasco donned the costume of director of the Davis Cup for this 2021 edition, the last four of which will take place in Madrid. Necessarily questioned about the early elimination of the Spain team during an interview with Let’s go, Fernando wanted to put it into perspective.
“It’s a shame to lose, we only needed one set to qualify for the quarter-finals. Having said that: as the director of the Davis Cup this year, as I said before the start of the tournament, I want Spain to win as a Spaniard, but I am also the director of the other teams. If I look at it from the most impartial point of view possible, despite the sadness of losing Spain, we must be happy that the team replacing them is Serbia, with world number one Djokovic. We remain with the sadness that Spain could not reach the quarter-finals, yes, but at least we will have Djokovic and the Serbian team in the quarter-finals. And it would have to be an incredible new game if Djokovic and Medvedev came to meet. “
