There was a celebration for the 100 years and they forgot one of the main guests.
“Argentina played the Davis Cup for 100 years and we won it once. I had the privilege of being the captain of that team, that team of lions. This weekend I would have liked to be invited to the Davis Cup series played at the Buenos Aires Lawn Tennis. “I would have liked to be part of the celebration of that anniversary,” he published. Daniel Orsanic. He was the one who led Argentina during 2016 to win the Silver Salad Bowl, the most coveted team trophy in tennis. After the finals of 1981, 2006, 2008 and 2011, Orsanic was the only one who found his way and achieved what no one had been able to do. You have reasons to express yourself like this then.
The former doubles player published a letter on his social networks in which he states that he did not receive the call from the leadership of the Argentine Tennis Association. The institution chaired by Agustín Calleri organized a special event for the 100 years since the first participation of the national team in the Davis Cup, taking advantage of the series against Lithuania, which ended with a victory for the albiceleste at the Lawn Tennis in Palermo, with events and tributes that excluded none other than Orsanic himself.
Etcheverry closed the Argentine party in the Davis Cup
Orsanic was captain of the 2016 Davis Cup that ended with Argentina consecrated for the first time in its history against Croatia by 3 to 2 with the key victories of Juan Martin del Potro (Ante Ivo Karlovic y Marin Cilic) and of Federico Delbonis, in the final against Karlovic. Furthermore, the doubles couple was made up of Delpo himself along with Leonardo Mayer. And he was also on the team Guido Pella. They had also been part of the previous rounds Renzo Olivo, Carlos Berlocq y Juan Monaco.

Tennis friends, tennis family:
I want to congratulate the Davis Cup team for the victory. Players, coaching staff and that fan that always accompanies us. Very happy for everyone, spectacular atmosphere. Congratulations on the anniversary of Argentina’s participation in the Davis Cup; 100 years nothing more and nothing less.

I think that the ego on the court in tennis is something very positive, it helps us gain confidence and believe in ourselves, we have to know how to manage it. But when that ego comes before the purpose, when meanness surpasses responsibility, I believe that wrong decisions are made, resources are not optimized.
It’s good to be self-critical and realize that sometimes we act badly. Have the people of the Association missed it? Or is it that pride continues to be the strongest?
I wish that all this improves for the good of Argentine tennis, for the good of this sport that gave us so much. We are part of a society that I personally want to grow for the better.
A very, very strong greeting. A big hug to the entire tennis family and let’s move forward.
