No Davis Cup for Del Potro
Argentine number one Juan Martin del Potro has made himself
unavailable for the 2013 Davis Cup World Group opener against Germany
from February 1-3, captain Martin Jaite said Sunday.
"We sent emails to all the players likely to be selected and asked
them to respond before December 10. Del Potro didn't answer. On December
20, he then sent me an SMS to tell me that he was not available," Jaite
told La Nacion.
"The relationship with Del Potro isn't broken, the doors of the team
are always open to him." Without world number seven Del Potro, Argentina
may struggle to progress in the Davis Cup where this year they were
beaten 3-2 in the semi-finals by eventual champions, the Czech Republic.
