MADRID - Gerard Pique believes the clash between the revamped Davis Cup Finals and the rival ATP Cup could be solved by creating a ‘super event’ held over a fortnight in September.
The inaugural 18-nation edition in Madrid’s La Caja Magica, where it will also be staged next year, has been a qualified success despite some ties struggling to attract crowds and a schedule that has resulted in a run of extremely late finishes. He said he hoped a change in leadership at the ATP, where Italian Andrea Gaudenzi will replace Chris Kermode as chairman, will help break the impasse.
“I think Novak and Rafa , the number one and two in the world right now, have expressed that they want the same, they want just one event, and if it’s possible, to put it in September for two weeks. Since day one, we expressed we want to arrive to this deal.The obstacle to Kosmos and the ITF having their wish is the Laver Cup competition, played in September and partly owned by Roger Federer’s management company Team8 and Tennis Australia, which has been officially sanctioned by the ATP.
