Ferrero, Moya to lead Spanish Davis Cup team against United States
November 9, 2004
BARCELONA, Spain (AP) -- Former No. 1s and French Open champions Juan Carlos Ferrero and Carlos Moya will lead Spain against the United States in next month's Davis Cup final.
Rafael Nadal and Tommy Robredo were also on the Spanish roster announced Tuesday, with Feliciano Lopez and Fernando Verdasco as substitutes.
It's the same group Spain used to beat the Netherlands in the quarterfinals and France in the semifinals.
U.S. captain Patrick McEnroe will announce his squad Thursday. It's expected to be the same quartet that beat Belarus in the semifinals: Andy Roddick and Mardy Fish in singles, and twins Bob and Mike Bryan in doubles.
The final is in Seville on Dec. 3-5.
Spain won the Cup in 2000. The United States has won the title a record 31 times -- but not since 1995.
