Simulation match in all group finals in Davis Cup. It lasted a few minutes, not even two games. A complete failure that also proved Australia’s victory over the Czech Republic, 2-0.
The Spanish group in Valencia was clarified in this event. Australia, with two wins, are close to the Final 8 in Malaga, while Spain will certify a mathematical pass of two if they win this Friday against France. The rivalry between the ‘Aussies’ and the Spaniards, on Sunday, is to bid for the leadership of the group, theoretically positioning themselves better in the draw for the quarterfinals.
Alexei Popyrin He defeated Tomas Macchac 1-0 and retired, although the classification results would be 6-0 and 6-0.
Czechia is out, because everything has been a disaster. Her number 2 woke up with a fever, Jiri Lehecka, which gave position to Jakub Mensikwho lost 6-2, 6-7 (2) and 6-3 matches Thanasi Kokkinakis.
Then he lined up a Tomas Macac who had retired by then Carlos Alcaraz the previous day. It is not yet warm in the morning. He went out on the track for nothing. With a massive bandage on the calf of his right leg, the Czech moved only to go to his bench and be helped by the physiotherapist.
And retire. The Czechs came with only four players, not the maximum five. They have double player Adam Pavlasek as a solution, but he has to play at No. 2 and Mensik moved to No. 1. They chose not to do it and have a bad time for a Davis Cup.
