Davis Cup: Journey Ends in the Semifinals

Malaga, 11-22-2024

The German tennis team missed out on the Davis Cup final. In the semifinals of the prestigious national competition, the team led by national coach Michael Kohlmann lost 0-2 to the Netherlands.

Daniel Altmaier, after saving eight match points, lost 4-6, 7-6 (14:12), 3-6 to Botic van de Zandschulp. In the second singles match of the evening, Jan-Lennard Struff was defeated by Tallon Griekspoor 7-6 (7:4), 5-7, 4-6.

In the absence of top star Alexander Zverev, the DTB team had a chance for the greatest success in recent decades against an evenly matched opponent. However, the final remained a dream, just as it did in 2021 when they lost 1-2 to Russia. Nevertheless, reaching the semifinals of this significant tournament was a success.

Kevin Krawietz and Tim Pütz, who sensationally won the ATP Finals in Turin a week earlier, did not play, just as in the quarterfinals against Canada.

Italy won the Davis Cup.
