But the German got revenge in the deciding doubles, teaming with Jan-Lennard Struff to edge Djokovic and Nikola Cacic 7-6 , 5-7, 10-7 and ensure they made a last four clash against Daniil Medvedev’s Russia.“It was so difficult to play against today. Missiles from the other side of the court, both first and second serve,” said Djokovic, who led his country to the inaugural title last year.
Carreno Busta, ranked 16th, had few problems in thrashing Pervolarakis 6-3, 6-4 to guarantee their spot in the playoff rounds against Italy. Bautista Agut couldn’t match the exploits, crashing 7-5, 7-5 to world number six Tsitsipas, who boasts two wins from two in a promising start to his season. In contrast, Nadal hasn’t played a competitive game since the semi-finals of the ATP Finals in London on November 21.
