Boris Becker reacts to Rafael Nadal’s ‘one hell of a record’ at Davis Cup
Rafael Nadal has amassed a plethora of amazing records and statistics in his excellent career, and his Davis Cup record is right up there as well. Boris Becker recently expressed his feelings about the Spaniard’s Davis Cup record as he bid farewell to tennis. The German legend compared his own record in the competition to that of Nadal’s.
Nadal made his debut for Spain at the Davis Cup in 2004. That year, he lost to Czech Republic’s Jiri Novak in his first-ever appearance but he eventually helped Spain win the Davis Cup title. He went unbeaten in 29 matches after the loss to Novak, making it the tournament’s third-longest winning streak since the Open Era.
