Germany qualified this Wednesday in Malaga for the semi-finals of the Davis Cup after beating Canada in the quarterfinals (2-0). The Germans took their revenge after the quarter lost in 2022 against the Canadians, who then won the Davis Cup.
Daniel Altmaier (88th in the world) first brought the first German point by defeating Gabriel Diallo (86th) 7-6 (7/5), 6-4, at the end of a hard-fought match. In the number one match, also very balanced, Jan-Lennard Struff, 43rd in the world, perfected the German victory by returning a game that had started poorly against Denis Shapovalov (56th) 4-6, 7-5, 7-6 (7/5).
The two teams were deprived of their respective leaders, the German Alexander Zverev (2nd in the world) and Félix Auger Aliassime (29th), both forfeited. In the semi-final on Friday, Germany will meet the Netherlands, whose victory Tuesday evening against Spain (2-1) sounded the death knell for Rafael Nadal's immense career. The last two quarter-finals will pit Italy against Argentina and Australia against the United States on Thursday.
