“We were eating something and the doctor called Pepe, they told him they needed me on Sunday (11/24). After all the love they gave me, I want to surprise them on Saturday (11/23). I don’t want to play tennis, because I’m not in such good condition. “
“I sleep from 2.30 in the afternoon until 9:00 at night. In my heart, I knew I had to play the final without asking the captain. Bruguera asked how I was and whether I wanted to enter the field. I practiced and struggled throughout my life to get the opportunity to do Davis Cup Finals. It feels very pleasant. I have never felt anything like this in my life. “
With the support of fellow countryman Rafael Nadal, Bautista Agut said, “He is a unique individual. That is the character. The things he gave to the team were very positive and how he could bring the competition to life. I will not forget what he said, that I will be an example for life. “
