PARIS — Spain open their campaign to clinch the first hat-trick of Davis Cup wins since the United States in 1972 with a home tie against Switzerland but neither Rafael Nadal nor Roger Federer will be involved.
The absence of the two superstars of world tennis is indicative of the current problems facing the supreme team title in tennis that was first contested in 1900.
