Roger Federer has never been too keen on playing the Davis Cup. Last year he managed to win the competition “for the boys” and it seems that this year he is competing just to “qualify” to play for the Olympics in 2016.
Federer: I am not sure I will play the Davis Cup again…
When asked about the chances to play again the Davis Cup he replied “I don’t see this challenge as a farewell. In another scenario, I would have stopped to play Davis Cup in Lille. I played with this thought, but I knew it wouldn’t be so, because of Olympics.
It may be that I will continue to play in the Davis Cup, but next year it will certainly be difficult. May be at the end of 2016 or in 2017. There is still time to decide.”
… why I struggle to play
Then he explained why he struggles to play the Davis Cup “I understand that I have to give answers, but I don’t know where you play the next challenge. Cilic is in Brazil, Nadal is in Denmark and we are in Geneva, so this time we are lucky. Davis Cup makes everything uncertain and it is not easy to plan.
I like to be organized, but I’m also willing to change. However, it is difficult to win the Davis Cup, becoming number one, winning a grand slam title and winning the Masters 1000. And then be criticized if I lose in the final in Dubai. I can’t please everyone.
It was always a goal to win the Davis Cup. Now that we have it done we are ready to do it again,”
