We had to wait and see, but the decision has been made: Rafael Nadal will play in the Davis Cup match with the Netherlands later today.
The 38-year-old Spaniard, who is saying goodbye to top tennis after the Final Eight in Málaga, will face Botic van de Zandschulp in the first match of the quarter-finals against the Dutch team at 5 p.m. It was unclear for a long time whether Nadal would play and whether that would be in singles or doubles.
In the other singles match, the leaders Tallon Greekpoor and Carlos Alcaraz meet each other. The battle between the host country and the Netherlands will end with a doubles match. The winner of the meeting will advance to the semi-finals.
