Spain Qualifies for the Davis Cup Final After Defeating Germany
BOLOGNA, Italy – Spain secured their place in the Davis Cup final thanks to the outstanding performance of the doubles pair formed by Marcel Granollers and Pedro Martínez, who achieved a crucial victory over the German duo composed of Tim Pütz and Kevin Krawietz.
The match, which was decided with a score of 6-2, 3-6 and 6-3, sealed the Spanish victory 2-1 in the semi-final.
Alexander Zverev kept Germany’s hopes alive with a 7-6 (2), 7-6 (5) victory over Jaume Munar. Previously, Pablo Carreño Busta had given Spain the first point by defeating Jan-Lennard Struff, saving five consecutive set points in the tiebreaker and closing the match with a score of 6-4, 7-6 (6).
Granollers and Martínez surprised Pütz and Krawietz, inflicting only their second defeat on them in the Davis Cup.
This result propels the Spanish team, which did not have Carlos Alcaraz due to an injury, to the final for the first time in six years.
Spain will face Italy, the defending champion, who defeated Belgium on Friday.
