He watched the 2023 final from the bench, supporting his teammates as one of the team, although an injury prevented him from being officially called up. Whims of fate, it is back to Martín de Carpena Sports Palace in Malaga with a radical change of roles.
He introduced concentration as a substitute for Flavio Cobollibecause it did not appear on the official first list. The first day he didn’t compete in the individual, that position went Lorenzo Musettibut his good performance in doubles, along with Jannik Sinner, It also allowed him to secure a spot in the ‘singles’, semi-finals and finals.
He got everything in his own right. Matteo Berrettini He fulfilled like he was crack. At 28 years old, he is ranked 35th in the world, which corresponds more to his irregularity due to repeated physical problems than to his true potential when he competes under the conditions.
In tennis a top-10 he placed the second Davis Cup in a row for Italy, third in its history, as far as the infallible. Jannik Sinner. Barring an accident, the transalpine team will repeat the ‘salad bowl’. Berrettini’s streak says a lot about his performance in this tournament: eight consecutive individual wins, an overall balance of 9-2.
‘Dirty’ work is equivalent to Matteo Berrettiniand ended what had been Spain’s nightmare in the quarterfinals with a magnificent recital. The dream of the Netherlands, making its debut in a Davis Cup final, disappeared when Roman lost his number two, Botic Van de Zandschulp, 29 years old and number 80.
No more Dutch miracles. Berrettini won by a landslide, 6-4 and 6-2 (1h.16′), against an opponent he has beaten four times before, twice this season. They met in the group stage, with 3-6, 6-4 and 6-4 victories over a Van de Zandschulp which concluded the career of Rafael Nadalhas angered the doubles at Carlos Alcaraz.
Realism bathroom in Malaga. Italy, superior. Everything is ready for the end of the Sinner. No one is free from accidents. In normal conditions, the world number one would lose Tallon Griekspooras in the previous five, and will decide the 2024 Davis Cup.
Italy will become the fifth nation to win the Davis Cup in the same season and Billie Jean King, the eighth to retain the men’s crown in the modern era of the centennial tournament.
