Denis Shapovalov - Bhambri Yuki

Game Preview : Davis Cup is here and we have a lot of matches in many places around the world. Players which play for their countries are feeling pride and they don't need money or ranking points, its all about love for tennis and their home. In this match we have Canada versus India match and two interesting players Bhambri Yuki and Denis Shapovalov.

Let's talk about players :

Denis Shapalov (51) – Seven years younger player from Canada, he isn’t real Canadian, he was born in Israel. 183cm tall, can shoot really good serve, he is very young so very fresh and athletic. Only 35/18 career record on hard, but still it is very promising, this year 24/8 hard surface record, most wins was reached in canadian hard court season in late summer, he won one challenger here and reached final on next one. Now he is playing for his country in Davis Cup. Denis is very talented, he defeated players like Juan Martin Del Potro, Rafael Nadal, even Roger Federer said he enjoys watching him play.

Bhambri Yuki (157) - Fastest Indian tennis player ever, very talented, very athletic and nice to watch player, but he had hard career during his years in tennis. Playing in India, maybe with not the best coaches, best conditions for tennis. Anyway Yuki playing very solid tennis for two past years, he is going up in rankings almost every month. 29/11 balance on hard courts this year, and he already played Denis in Challenger this year, but lost 2:1.

Comparing the players : They are both fast, both players like to play on fast courts like hard, they can serve good, hit fast hits and run a lot, maybe at this moment Denis is in better shape.

What to expect today ? : Playing for country is different thing than playing in simple tournament, you play for a lot of people also you have a responsibility to show best tennis and play best tennis, this time players can't skip. In this scenario we see Yuki with atleast one set in his hands, this match for Canadian can be very hard and make him struggle, because he is big favourite today and that can press weight on him.
