Rafael Nadal, Spain’s pride disappointed his countrymen when he announced that he would not be able to compete in the Davis Cup finals against Argentina because of a knee injury. He received the test results from his tendinitis on his right knee. It was a difficult decision to make for him as he knows that the two events, namely the Davis Cup and Shanghai Masters are the two most important objectives for this year. He said, he did all possible things to make it but he just could not make it. The Davis Cup will be held on this week in Mar del Plata, Argentina. This came as good news for Argentina as it was hoping to win this year’s title. It is really a point in their favor according to skipper Alberto Mancini.
