Thanasi Kokkinakis was unable to give Australia the first point against Italy in the semifinals of the 2024 Davis Cup, as he did against the United States in the quarterfinals. The Australian, already in a press conference, displayed his disappointment since his victory was crucial against the Italian team, which has a clear advantage with Jannik Sinner, the world number 1. "I'm deflated. I knew it was an important match. It's no secret how well Jannik is playing. I needed to give it a try and give us a chance to see what we can do. I hope Alex (De Miñaur) plays an incredible match. I felt like we really needed it for Australia. It's not that I don't have confidence in Alex, but the way Jannik is playing... it's tough at the moment," he said.
