The Serbian Davis Cup team eliminated the Great Britain team (2-0) with the world number one, Novak Djokovic, at the helm, and advanced to a semi-final date that will be against Jannik Sinner’s Italy, which surpassed (2 -1) also this Thursday to the Netherlands in the Final 8 that are being played in Malaga.
Both will meet at the Sports Palace José María Martín Carpena for the third time in two weeks, after the two confrontations they had at the ATP Finals in Turin. Djokovic lost in the group stage but beat Sinner in the final to claim ‘Maestro‘ for the seventh time and continue expanding his legend.
Sinner makes the comeback against the Netherlands and qualifies Italy for the Davis Cup semifinals
The champion of 24 ‘greats’ is still hungry for a final goal in 2023, the second salad bowl from Serbia, for which they won by a double 6-4 against Cameron Norrie in the second match of their quarterfinal tie. Based on a relatively comfortable match, ‘Nole’ took the opening set with a key break in the fifth game.
Although he was able to advance the outcome, Norrie saved a 0-40 deficit in the seventh game and then another break bowl, although he only lengthened what seemed to be sung. To make matters worse, the Brit gave up his serve at love as soon as the next set started, trailing and making a nice reaction in the fifth game useless.
Novak Djokovic plays the Davis Cup at “home”
Five break point opportunities were denied by Norrie to the ATP number one, who nevertheless continued on his way to serve without any problems. In almost a now and three quarters, Djokovic secured the victory and the Serbian ticket to the semis. Before, Miomir Kecmanovic had achieved a huge victory despite a difficult season with a 7-6(2), 7-6(6) over Jack Draper.
Thus, Serbia, champion in 2010, met in the semifinals with an Italy that reached the penultimate round as it did last year, thanks to a Sinner who allowed his team to come back by tying the tie with his individual point and winning the doubles together with Lorenzo Sonego.
