They're not lacking in effort and heart, especially when they're playing for their country. They get really inspired to play for their flag and they give it their all, as it should be in Davis Cup.
bit came cup davis definitely diligence due felt last played prepare quick ready time
I feel more prepared. Last year, you know, I didn't - we played Davis Cup in December, so by the time this came around it felt pretty quick to me. I definitely feel like I did more due diligence this year, was a little more ready to go and had a little bit more time to prepare on my terms.
