It couldn't be. Spain fought until the end in the first round of the United Cup 2025, but ended up falling to Kazakhstan by 2-1. The national team started off well, with Pablo Carreño defeating Shevchenko 6-2 6-1. Later, Elena Rybakina confirmed her favoritism against Jessica Bouzas, winning 6-2 6-3. Everything was decided in the mixed doubles, where Yvonne Cavalle-Reimers and Carreño succumbed to Shevchenko and Rybakina in a match defined by small details, 7-6 (4) 6-7 (2) 10-7. It is now very difficult for the Spanish team to qualify, as they would need to win 3-0 against Greece and hope for other results.
