  • Serbs psyched up for Davis Cup final

    12/1/10 2:59 PM | Johan Lindahl
    Serbs psyched up for Davis Cup final Novak Djokovic, pushing himself through a long and tiring season but fully recharged as he tries to carry his nation to new glory as Serbia's historic Davis Cup final with France draws closer.

    "Playing in a Davis Cup final is the biggest success that my country ever had," said team leader Djokovic.
    "It's a unique opportunity to have Davis Cup final played at home."

    Djokovic headed to Belgrade immediately after exiting in the semifinals of the World Tour Finals in London, ready to fire up for the last - but most important - event of his season. "I came here on Sunday so I've had time to rest a little bit. Now I'm ready to practice and give my best throughout the weekend. Maybe we'll never have this opportunity again and we're looking forward to it."

    Joining Djokovic are good friends Janko Tipsarevic and Viktor Troicki, while Nenad Zimonjic brings confidence from last weekend's victory in doubles which won the ATP World Tour Finals.

    "It's the biggest achievement that we have as a country, in the tennis, which is an individual sport," said Zimonjic. "Novak makes our team much, much stronger. I bring a lot with the doubles. But then the second player, which is either Viktor or Janko, they're also doing their part. Davis Cup is difficult to compare, it's a completely different achievement."

    France and Serbia begin play Friday, with French No. 2 Jo-Wilfried Tsonga along for support on the bench as he recovers form a knee injury.
