Davis Cup tennis final 2008

From 4 to 6 of December, Palau Sant Jordi will host the Davis Cup tennis finals, in which Spain will play against the Czech Republic.

The Mayor of Barcelona, Jordi Hereu, expressed great satisfaction after the Spanish Tennis Federation’s decision to accept the city’s nomination was made public and remarked that “once again the city will show the world we can guarantee international events are a success.”

Barcelona hosted the finals in 2000, a resounding success in its organisation, participation and sport, since Spain won the final against Australia.Hereu added that “this event is once again a great opportunity, an acknowledgement of the strong ties tennis enjoys in Barcelona“.
