While the Doppel-Helden Kevin Krawietz and Tim Pütz had two matches in Malaga, they had their Davis Cup lesson in the hotel with big applause. “This is a Überragender Erfolg for the beiden,” said Jan-Lennard Struff during the German doubles triumph at the ATP Finals. “We often have a risk for you,” said the Warsteiner, in Abwesenheit des bereits im Urlaub weilenden Alexander Zverev die deutsche Nummer eins.

Krawietz and Pütz were appointed to the Sonntag mit dem Erfolg in Turin for a great title and such a title. “When the title is not expensive, what title is it?” said Krawietz, of his doubles partner Andreas Mies, who won the French Open twice.

Erfolgsdoppel ist komplizierte Anreisen gewohnt

They were prepared and adapted to the Mannschaft Stießen, which allowed them to get to the Canadian final and these two hours (12:00 p.m.) of big role-playing games. “Wir sind ja Schlimmeres gewohnt,” said Pütz mit Blick auf die Anreise zur Zwischenrunde in China in September. Damals accompanied Pütz and Krawietz to the US Open final in New York, halfway through world history, and the first surprises before the test tournament for the Slowakei angekommen.

Allen Strapazen and Trotz also liked the duo in China and went to all three parties. Wie auf Krawietz et Pütz eigentlich immer Verlass ist. There are 14 doubles who have had the ATP-Finals-Champions 13 wins. We can’t wait to see you at the Verlierer den Platz – or at least once you arrive in Malaga in Canada.

Revenge for 2022 from Ziel

Also deshalb geht deutsche Team ganz besonders motiviert in das Viertelfinale. “We have already had an official match with Canada,” said federal coach Michael Kohlmann for the duel with the North American country with a score of 1:2 in 2022.

Auch Damals War Zverev nicht dabei, weil er sich einige Monate zuvor im Finale der Roland-Garros Schwer am Fuß verletzt Hatte. In recent months, the last two years of the world will not take place for Germany in the Davis Cup, but there will be one and the same season for the Maldives in Malaga.

In the mid-finals, Germany will go through the Spanish encounter and I will see Rafael Nadal’s big show unfold. All 22 of Spain’s Grand Slams have come at the Davis Cup Finals in a decisive race.

Doch das spielt en den Köpfen der deutschen Spieler noch keine Rolle. “Naturlich wäre es noch mal ein i-Tüpfelchen,” says Pütz, der am Dienstag seinen 37. Geburtstag feierte. “Aber der Gedanke ist jetzt noch nicht so present, weil wir gegen Kanada das letzte Mal verloren haben. It’s a schwierige Aufgabe.
