If David Ferrer has his way, then Botic van de Zandschulp can buckle up. Because the Spanish Davis Cup captain is firmly convinced that Rafael Nadal will be ready for the quarter-finals against the Netherlands. As a single player.
“I have a lot of trust in Rafa because I have spent my whole career with him and I know that he is honest with me about his ability to play,” Ferrer told Spain’s Marca. “My impression after talking to him is that he will be good to go.”
Alcaraz and Granollers in Turin
“I spoke to Rafa on Wednesday,” Ferrer continued. He is also constantly in contact with Nadal’s coach Carlos Moya and agent Carlos Costa. “I get daily updates.”
“I will decide in Málaga when I see how he does in training. But that also applies to all other players. If Nadal is trained at a good level and is fit, he is of course an option.” David Ferrer is only slightly worried about the fact that Carlos Alcaraz and doubles ace Marcel Granollers are in action at the ATP Finals in Turin. And therefore probably joined the team in Málaga late.
