World No. 1 Rafael Nadal defeated Pablo Cuevas 6-2, 6-1 to give Spain an insurmountable 2-0 lead against Uruguay, with doubles still to play.
It has been a great match. I played better than the other day. It was a positive victory against an opponent I respect.
I am super happy now with this victory. We are able to win another tie.
In the doubles next is very important because we will have a chance to make it into the quarter-finals.
Rafa Nadal
Earlier, Roberto Bautista Agut earned his second victory of the 2020 ATP Tour season by beating Franco Roncadelli 6-1, 6-2.
The Spanish squad, which is captained by Rafa’s coach Franciso Roig, will face Japan on Wednesday in their final Group B matches.
The winner from each group will be joined by the two best second places in the quarterfinals of the tournament for three knock-out rounds until a champion team is crowned.
Well done Rafa.
That was an impressive performance 🙂 .
