Novak Djokovic spoke about the Davis Cup format ahead of the first tie at the Davis Cup finals in which Serbia will be facing Japan on November 20th.
Serbia is part of Group A with Japan and France. Dusan Lajovic, Filip Krajinovic, Viktor Troicki and Janko Tipsarevic will be also fighting for Serbia at the Davis Cup finals. About the Davis Cup Djokovic said:
“There was some change very much needed for the team competitions to gain more attention, more significance. Whether the format change is going to help this competition and elevate it to a different level, I don’t know.
"Maybe because of the differences they (Davis Cup and ATP Cup) can coexist but there’s a lot of players that share the same opinion that the time between the two tournaments is too short and it’s going to be really hard for both of these big team competitions to thrive."
Gerard Pique said: “We understand we have to start little by little. In five years’ time, I want everyone, players and fans, to think ‘Davis Cup is in November and I want to be there."

- Players need to STOP TRYING TO JUSTIFY THEIR INCLUSION! They are not ambassadors for women in Saudi Arabia, they are not politicians, and they will never make a difference for females in that 'culture'. This little tennis "tournament" changes nothing. Players were lured by the money, opted to participate, and should just keep their predictable excuses and Women's Freedom Fairy Tales to themselves. Period. Like most things in Life -- one cannot make an argument relating to the Saudi Regime and, at the same time, triple your bank account with their "gifts".
