Spanish DC Captain: Nominating players is always a problem
Spanish Davis Cup Team Captain Sergi Bruguera claims it is always a problem for him to nominate players for ties because he is always forced to leave some good players since Spain has so many star players.
On Monday, Bruguera announced his nominations for the inaugural Davis Cup Finals as 18-time Grand Slam champion Rafael Nadal, Wimbledon semifinalist Roberto Bautista Agut, Pablo Carreno Busta, Feliciano Lopez and Marcel Granollers made the list.
After the announcement was made, three-time Davis Cup champion Verdasco publicly voiced his displeasure over not being nominated to represent Spain in Madrid from November 18-24.
"I have many players. It's always a problem to pick the team because in the end you always have to leave out players who are great and who would serve you for sure. Obviously, having Rafa for us is the most important thing," Bruguera told the Davis Cup Finals website.
Bruguera, who was named the Spanish Team Captain in 2017, won two French Open titles and achieved a career-high ranking of No. 3 in the world during his career but never won a Davis Cup title.
