The selection of Jaroslav Navrátil was presented in it last year in the Innsbruck group and the talented Leheček and Tomáš Macháč showed that they are the future of Czech tennis.
“Argentina with Schwartzman and Delbonis is an experienced team, but we are not going to lose there. Last year’s experience is priceless, “thinks Captain Jaroslav Navrátil, who will miss the world number one on Thursday, Novak Djokovic’s Jiří Veselý.
“Of course we didn’t know that Jirka would be so successful, but we still have a promising team,” says the captain. Kolář has been in South America since the end of January and has completed three tournaments there.

“I’m really looking forward to making it in Argentina,” Macháč said militarily.
But the Czechs mainly need to get used to clay in the scene.

“They haven’t played in her for almost half a year, but we have five or six days to get ready. The Argentines have been playing on clay for a month with good results, but this is the Davis Cup, “Navrátil calls for surprises.
“Our position has changed. Lehečka played evenly with the fourth player of the world Tsitsipas, Jirka Veselý defeated the world number one. Why couldn’t the boys beat Schwartzman. The team is in a good mood and next Saturday we will hopefully be happier for you, “believes the captain.

The last team to win the Davis Cup win from Buenos Aires were the Italians, who narrowly controlled the first round of the World Group in 2017.
