Very interesting QF of the Davis Cup where in at least 3 of them,Spain-Germany,Czchek Republic-Argentina and Croatia-United States anything can happen.

The fourth QF seemed to be one side as Russia was huge favorite against Israel but the day belonged to Harel Levy,ranked 210,who defeated Igor Andreev 6-4,6-2,4-6,6-2 and Dudi Sela who came back after losing the first set 3-6 to win the next three 6-1,6-0,7-5.

Some 10,500 fans,the largest crowd ever assisting to a tennis event in Israel,cheered their players to victory all day long. Israel,with a 2-0 advantage over Russia is now one match away from its first appearence ever in the Semi-Finals of the Davis Cup.

In Marbella,Spain,Fernando Verdasco gave the first point to Spain in a 5 set victory over Andreas Beck 6-0,3-6,6-7,6-2,6-1,finishing very strong after loosing the 2nd and 3rd sets. Then Philipp Kohlschreiber ended a four matches losing streak to Tommy Robredo to even the score at 1-1 between spain and Germany,beating the spaniard 6-3,6-4,6-4. Things are evenly matched and it is not easy to pick a favorite though the locals have an advantage playing with the support of their fans.

In Ostrava,Czchek Republic,Tomas Berdych had to come back from a 2 sets to 1 deficit facing the argentinian Juan Monaco to take the match 6-4,2-6,2-6,6-3,6-2 in 3 hours 27 minutes.After that #5 in the world Juan Martin del Potro leveled the score with an easy win against Ivo Minar 6-1,6-3,6-3. 1-1 in Ostrava but the argentinians will have a tough time in the doubles as they face the formidable pair Berdych-Stepanek.

In Croatia Ivo Karlovic won the first 5 setter of his career to give the first point to his country.He did it the hard way,dropping the first 2 sets to a very solid Blake 6-7,4-6,then fighting back to take the next three 6-3,7-6,7-5. Marin Cilic puts the United States against the ropes as he takes the best over Mardy Fish in 5 sets 4-6,6-3,6-7,6-1,8-6 and give Croatia a 2-0 lead. Cilic overcame a 2 sets to 1 deficit in a four and a half hours match,failing to hold his serve at 5-4 in the 5th but finally doing the job breaking Fish’s service game.

United States and Russia in big trouble,who would have thought so?

However the Davis Cup is a totally different competition in which the rankings don’t mean much and every point has usually to be earned through tough battles,we haven’t seen the end of it in those encounters.
