Francoska teniška zveza se še ni odločila kje in na kateri podlagi bodo gostili Švicarje v finalu Davisovega pokala, ki bo potekal od 21. - 23. novembra 2014. Za kraj dogodka bodo izbirali med stadionom v Lillu, ki sprejme 26.000 in dvorano v Nici, ki sprejme 10.000 obiskovalcev!
Več težav imajo pri izbiri podlage, saj imata obe reprezentanci igralce, ki so dobri na vseh podlagah. Roger Federer je zmagovalec Roland Garrosa (pesek) in 4 x finalist. Stan Wawrinka je letos osvojil ATP1000 turnir v Monte Carlu (pesek). Federer ima veliko naslovov na trdi podlagi, Wawrinka je osvojil OP Avstralije (trda).
Hitra trda podlaga ustreza Joju Wilfriedu Tsongaju, a je bil tudi polfinalist Roland Garrosa. Tako Gael Monfils kot Richard Gasquet sta dobra na peščeni podlagi, še bolj agresivna pa sta na trdi, kar je v četrtfinalu OP ZDA pokazal Monfils, ki je imel že 2 "match" točki proti Rogerju, a na koncu klonil po 5 nizih.
"Mislim, da v tem dvoboju podlaga ne bo imela pomembne vloge. Pomembna bo želja in strast igralcev," je dejal Tsonga. Stadion ali dvorano bodo izbrali čez teden dni!
"V zadnjih medsebojnih dvobojih smo izgubljali doma in zmagovali v gosteh. Upam, da se bo to nadaljevalo tudi tokrat. Presrečni smo z uvrstitvijo v finale," je dejal Roger Federer.
Odvijali so se tudi dvoboji za obstanek v svetovni skupini in na nižjem nivoju tekmovanja. Omeniti velja izpad Španije proti Braziliji. Španci so igrali brez najboljših igralcev. V ostalih dvobojih so kljub nekaj težavam zmagali favoriti.
