Novak Djokovic spoke about his mindset heading into the Davis Cup Finals in Madrid. The Belgrade native said: "We are ready. We trust our captain Nedad Zimonjic and we are confident he will take the best possible decisions. The Japanese guys should not be underestimated, even if Kei Nishikori doesn't play. We hope to start ad best as possible ane that a win can give us confidence before a decisive clash against France. Going step by step, day by day, I invite everyone to support us."
The Rafa Nadal Academy came to Uruguay on Tuesday teaching the Spanish player's values to the kids. Simone Brenna, who works in the commercial side of the Academy ran by the 33-year-old, said: "Without fighting, without working hard and being humble, a player cannot be made. We are developing clinics around the world promoting our Academy both for kids and adults, both at a professional and social level. People can come for one, two or three weeks, as much as they want. Of course we also have a one-year schedule for people who want to be professional."
Alexandre Praderas, one of the coaches who works in Montevideo, said: "We teach a lot of rhythm and intensity, always keeping the values given by Rafa."
