Before the semi-finals of Indian Wells 2015, only 2 players can win. If Novak Djokovic wins the tournament, daviscupchamp will earn the title. In all the other cases, tweenerschaez will win.



Nelson met daviscupchamp :

LLTL, Nelson : It's very strange how your performances are close to tweenerschaez ones ! Since the start of the season, you always end with approximatly the same score, whereas you does not support the same players. Is there a special connection between you two ?

daviscupchamp : Tweenerschaetz is a highly qualified tennis-expert, so I'm not sureprised about our collateral performances. During the first couple of tournaments in a new year, there are always a lot of underdog-wins. It's like playing the lottery: A lucky punch beats the specialists. But the longer the season takes, the easier it is to prognosticate results frequently. At least, this applies to native tennis-cracks like tweenerschaetz an me.

LLTL, Nelson : Could you tell us a little bit more about your avatar : the front page of Bild, with Jan Ullrich. I guess it was in 1997 after his win in Le Tour de France. Are you such a big fan of that guy and his amazing performances during the worst PED era ?



daviscupchamp : Jan Ullrich is still one of the best cyclists of all time. I don't care about these discussions and bad press. PED are just part of the game, and the game continuous. "Panem et circenses" - bread and circuses is what the people want, ago and today! Ullrich vs. Armstrong was one oft the most epic battles in sports history and Ullrich was my personal favorite. I think they deserve our respect for their performances!

Extra question answered after the semi-finals :

LLTL, Nelson : Will you support Djokovic or Federer during the final ?

daviscupchamp : I'll support Roger tonight, even thought I picked Novak in LLT. It was a desition taken by brain and againts my heart. If Roger wins tonight, I'm happy and I congratulate to tweenerschaez, for his first victory on LLT. If Novak wins, I'm happy for my first victory. In any case, it's gonna be a fantastic day for me!
