David Ferrer, a former world No. 3 in men's singles, has been named the new Spanish Davis Cup captain, replacing Sergi Bruguera.
The announcement comes after Spain lost in the quarterfinals of the 2022 Davis Cup Finals, an event that they played without their top two players, world No. 1 Carlos Alcaraz and world No. 2 Rafael Nadal.
Ferrer, who retired from professional tennis in 2019 after a successful career that included 27 ATP Tour titles, will now take on the role of leading the Spanish Davis Cup team as they look to bounce back from their recent disappointment. The 40-year-old has already served as a coach to Alexander Zverev for some time, and he brings a wealth of experience and knowledge to the position.
Ferrer's appointment as captain comes when Spain is enjoying its best times in the world of men's tennis. The country has a strong tradition in the sport, with multiple Grand Slam champions and Davis Cup titles, and with Carlos Alcaraz making it to the top of the ATP Rankings, the future should be even brighter.
The appointment of David Ferrer as Spanish Davis Cup captain is a positive step for the team as it looks to move on from its recent result. Ferrer brings a wealth of experience and a proven track record of success, and he will be a valuable asset as the team looks to rebuild and return to the top of the sport.
