The new Davis Cup format was inaugurated yesterday at the Magic Box in Madrid . Kosmos , the company that organized the event, Gerard Piqué , reached an agreement with the ATP for the next 25 years in exchange for more than 20,000 million dollars .
Like everything, changes do not like everyone. While some praise the dynamism and tension of contesting the trophy in just one week, others criticize that the essence of the Cup has been lost, disputed by qualifiers throughout the year during the last decades. In addition, they accuse that the organizers are people oblivious to what the world of tennis is.
One of those critics is Ion Tiriac , owner of the Masters of Madrid , which is played in the same Magic Box where the Davis Finals are played these days. The Romanian has been quite clear: "These people are sick of the head. They have never hit a tennis ball, they are ruining 120 years of tradition. They must be sentenced to life imprisonment for that," said the former Romanian player.
