Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal look set to face off in the Davis Cup Finals group stage this September, straight after the US Open. Serbia and Spain have both been drawn in Group B with the Republic of Korea and this year’s ATP Cup champions Canada. As the No 1 players for their respective countries, they are set for a mouthwatering match in Valencia to help their countries get to November’s knock-out stage.
Serbia and Spain have been drawn in the same group for September’s group stage of the Davis Cup finals, with Group B set to compete in Valencia from September 14 to 18. It means Djokovic and Nadal are on course to face off just days after the conclusion of the US Open, as the No 1 players of their respective nations.
They have only met once before in the Davis Cup, back in 2009 where the Spaniard won 6-4 6-4 6-1 in the first round of the old format. They will now meet in the group stages, with the dangerous Canadian team also joining them in Group B, led by top 16 players Felix Auger-Aliassime and Denis Shapovalov who clinched ATP Cup victory in January.
Djokovic and Nadal also met in a team format in the inaugural 2020 ATP Cup, in what was the final between Serbia and Spain, where Djokovic was the victor with a 6-2 7-6 defeat of his rival.
