Feliciano Lopez returns to Wimbledon one year after his racket was suspended. This time he does it in the formation of the Legends contest A couple with Franks Jeremy Chardy.
“Being at Wimbledon is always lucky and I haven’t played tennis for some time. I see people I haven’t seen in a while“, Philly commented This Tuesday.
The native of Toledo, the director of the Mutua Madrid Open and the final stage of the Davis Cup in Malaga, hopes to see Spain fighting for the salad bowl and that David Ferrer can count on Rafael Nadal and Carlos Alcaraz in the team.
Rafa is little known and is now focused on games
“I hope to see Carlos at the Davis Cup, it’s a very special competition and he loves it. Spain is making a big effort with Valencia, before Madrid and now Malaga. Rafa is little known, and now he is focused on games. I’m happy again, training without problems. He wants to give himself the possibility to compete in Paris, and if after that he gets into the Davis Cup game plan, it will be incredible. For David Ferrer it would be amazing to have Rafa and Carlos playing and MMS in your bass.”
Pease has a lot of confidence in Alcaraz’s options in the current version of the tournament:”I think the key moment for him was last year. When the Queen won he realized that he could play really well here. A clear development was seen in Queens and then at Wimbledon, beating Djokovic in the final, which is the maximum, and even more so in the way I play. These good players have a different ability to adapt to others“.
Olympic doubles
Fili is betting on the Olympic doubles formed by Nadal and Alcaraz: “I see options because they are more complete players than most of the pairs that will be formed. Many couples on the ring are not from the same country and break up at the games.”
