Davis Cup

You know the drill for this week: We wait for withdrawals. Will Spain, for instance, lose anyone else? Will they even notice if they do? They’re already without David Ferrer, Rafael Nadal, and Nicolas Almagro, which is about like going into a match down two sets to none….

Monday, it was the Czechs’ turn. Radek Stepanek, who along with Tomas Berdych has been the Czech team for the last half decade, is out with a bad back. That makes Lukas Rosol the Czech #2 on the team scheduled to face Switzerland.

Of course, the Swiss are without Roger Federer.
