Carlos Alcaraz said yesterday he is relishing teaming up with Rafael Nadal for Spain at the Davis Cup finals but hopes it won’t be “a last dance” for the 22-time Grand Slam champion.
Spain this week named both players in their five-man team for the finals in November on home soil in Malaga, the duo having competed together in doubles at the Paris Olympics.
The 38-year-old Nadal was included for the Davis Cup despite not seeing competitive action since Paris and only playing one of the last seven Grand Slams because of injury and fitness struggles.
The 21-year-old Alcaraz said he had “missed” his compatriot at the recent Laver Cup, which Nadal skipped because of injury.
“I don’t want to think that it is a potential last dance for him in Malaga,” four-time major winner Alcaraz said at the China Open in Beij ing.
