The countdown is underway. The Argentine team today began their preparation for the series of quarterfinals of the World Group of the Davis Cup against France, which will be played from Friday Rock Park Villa Soldati.
After the first practice, the bahiense Guido Pella, who acts as a sparring partner, spoke about the chances Argentine and said that people will play a key role in the development of the key.
"All series are difficult but this anymore. They have to Tsonga (Jo-Wilfried), Gasquet (Richard) and a doubles pair very important. Anyway, the fact of playing at home and the people in our favor, may weigh in favor of Argentina ".
The French seem a step above Argentina in regard to level, do you think the public will play an important role?
They are superior, but Argentina plays at home and that always means a plus. They play in France are enlarged and have always shown at Roland Garros, but outside some level down. Anyway, there is no doubt that it will be a very tough series.
What will be your role?
I'll have to give a helping hand especially in the doubles, because Llodra (Michael) is left-handed, so they will be able to train me different game variations.
What does it mean for you to be called back?
It is always a compliment to be part of the team and that makes me very happy. This week I take to be gaining pace on clay because Friday I travel to Houston (ATP is classified 250) and also because it is all slow tennis tour in Europe.
