2 min readFeb 14, 2026 04:54 PM IST The 3-2 win over the Netherlands in the Davis Cup Qualifiers may have been one of the greatest moments for India in their tennis history but for the Dutch, it seems to have exposed some fissures between the players themselves. The Netherlands had travelled to India without their top two players Tallon Griekspoor and Botic Van de Zandschulp. Griekspoor had been vocally critical about the Royal Dutch Lawn Tennis Association (KNLTB) and had refused to join the Netherlands team for the tie. Jesper De Jong, who led the team in the absence of Griekspoor and Van de Zandschulp and lost the decisive singles tie to Dhakshineswar Suresh, said on the sidelines of the ongoing Rotterdam 500 event that Griekspoor had “embarassed” the country. “You read that we played with a weakened team. I felt it was disrespectful. You shouldn’t embarrass your country,” he said. “I don’t speak to Tallon anyway. If someone treats his teammates like that, I don’t need to give them a hug.” De Jong …

The speculation around tape on Dhakshineswar Suresh’s shoes began after the official Davis Cup account posted his photograph on social media following India’s dramatic home win in the 2026 Qualifiers in Bengaluru. Soon after the image circulated, users began zooming in on his footwear, with some suggesting the tape was being used to hide a shoe brand due to sponsorship reasons, while others claimed it reflected a lack of resources. The chatter gathered momentum because of the scale of Suresh’s contribution in the tie. India edged past the Netherlands 3-2 at the SM Krishna Tennis Stadium, with Suresh playing a decisive role in all three of India’s winning rubbers. With the tie level at 1-1 after the opening day, Suresh teamed up with Yuki Bhambri in a surprise doubles pairing and defeated Sander Arends and David Pel 7-6, 3-6, 7-6. After Jasper de Jong beat Sumit Nagal in the first reverse singles to level the tie at 2-2, India once again turned to Suresh for the decider. The 25-year-old, despite having already spent close to …

Rafael Nadal on the possibility of becoming Spain’s Davis Cup captain in future: ‘Why not?’

Published by Webster

22-time Grand Slam champion Rafael Nadal has opened up about the possibility of becoming Spain’s non-playing captain in the Davis Cup in future. The 39-year-old, however, was quick to admit that it was too soon for him to be thinking along those lines since he had retired from the sport just over a year ago. Nadal retired from tennis after representing Spain in the Davis Cup finals against the Netherlands in Malaga last year, a tie which the hosts lost 1-2 to bow out in the quarter-final stage. “Being Davis Cup captain someday? Why not? I might enjoy it, or not. I’ve just retired. It’s far too early to be thinking about that. I respect life’s processes and adaptation. Right now, it’s not the time to think about it,” Nadal told AS in an interview. The Spaniard, however, ruled out the possibility of taking up professional coaching as it would require him to travel right through the year – something which he was not comfortable doing at this stage of his life. “I’ve always had …
