Davis Cup

The Davis Cup is the most important team event in tennis, in which the best national teams compete directly. Now that this year’s edition will be in a new format, Talento a bordo challenges you to test your knowledge about one of this noble sport’s most emblematic competitions.

Over the past three decades, Spain has established itself as one of the great powers in tennis producing a string of talented players. Bruguera and Sánchez-Vicario were followed by Ferrero and Moyá, among others, and after them came Nadal, Muguruza and company. But what about the future? Many already point to young Nicola Kuhn as the next flag bearer of the new generations.

He chose tennis as a way of life. Perhaps he didn’t know it the first time he picked up a racket, but when Sergi Bruguera hit his first ball, his talent for the sport became obvious. Now, as Spain captain for the Davis Cup, the great standard bearer of Spanish tennis in the nineties looks at his successful past and, above all, the present and future of this sport in our country.

Three Davis Cups are enough to speak with authority about the world’s most prestigious tennis team competition. The tournament’s new format, the Spanish team’s goals and Feliciano López’s future are some of the topics we covered with him just before he focused on trying to win another ‘salad bowl’ for Spain.
