Spain and Germany to Davis Cup Semifinals: Granollers and Zverev Shine

In an exciting Davis Cup match, Spain achieved a spectacular comeback to secure their place in the semifinals, defeating the Czech Republic with a score of 2-1.

However, Jaume Munar tied the series for Spain, achieving his first Davis Cup singles victory by defeating Jiri Lehecka with a score of 6-3, 6-4.

I was quite confident in my tennis. It doesn’t matter who is in front of me. I had a lot of confidence in myself and that’s the main thing.
