Ferrero will finally go to the Davis Cup final as tha fifth player

Juan Carlos Ferrero has accepted the chance that Albert Costa gave to him to be part of the Spanish Davis Cup final team,although he will go as the fifth player,which makes it nearly imposible for him to play.If you analyse it,it is very unfair that JC will probably dont play in the final,as he was the one that saved Spain in quarterfinals when they played against Germany,winning the fifth match against Beck.Also,he gave Spain a crucial point in semifinals against Israel,so he deserves more,but at least he will have the opportunity to feel again those feelings he had when he gave Spain the first Davis Cup of their history,doing a great passing shot with his backhand.

Remember that this Davis Cup final will take place between the 4-6 of December.

Ferrero confirms his assistance to the Auckland Open,which will be played in January

Former world tennis No 1 Juan Carlos Ferrero has confirmed he will return to Auckland in January.Next years appareance will be his sixth appearance in Auckland, having first played in 2000 as a teenager, beating Swiss ace Roger Federer on an outside court and continuing to the quarterfinals.

He lost a tense 2008 final to Philipp Kohlschreiber and returned this year, with the pair meeting in the second round in what was one of the tournament highlights. Ferrero lost that match in a third set tiebreak.

Heineken Open tournament director Richard Palmer said Ferrero had a great pedigree at the tournament and around the world."You don't get to win a Grand Slam and be number one in the world without having exceptional talent and that's just what Ferrero has. He's also had a great year winning a title and making the quarters at Wimbledon. He's extremely popular with the crowd in Auckland and knows how to play and how to entertain.".
