The Davis Cup draw for this weekend.
by bahamaderek on Dec.03, 2009, under 2009 Davis Cup
The draw for the Davis Cup by BNP Paribas Final between Spain and Czech Republic has been made at Palau Sant Jordi in Barcelona.
The full draw is as follows:
Friday 4 December – Play starts at 1600 (1500 GMT)
Rafael Nadal (ESP) v Tomas Berdych (CZE)
David Ferrer (ESP) v Radek Stepanek (CZE)
Saturday 5 December – Play starts at 1600 (1500 GMT)
Feliciano Lopez / Fernando Verdasco (ESP) v Lukas Dlouhy / Jan Hajek (CZE)
Sunday 6 December – Play starts at 1200 (1100 GMT)
Rafael Nadal (ESP) v Radek Stepanek (CZE)
David Ferrer (ESP) v Tomas Berdych (CZE)
It is interesting to note that Alberta Costa has chosen not to play Verdasco in the singles rubbers, he will only play in the doubles. Lukas Dlouhy, the highest ranked doubles player on either team, along with his partner Jan Hajek should have little trouble with the Spanish pair. By the end of Saturday’s play Czechs should be ahead 2-1. The 2009 Davis Cup will come down to the Ferrer/Berdych contest on Sunday.
