It was clear that the relationship between Horacio Zeballos, world number 1 in doubles, and Guillermo Coria, captain of the Argentine Davis Cup team, was not good. Coria did not select his compatriot to compete in the Olympic Games in Paris nor put him on the initial list to compete with Argentina in the Davis Cup. A marginalization that few understood and was a result of their poor relationship. However, Coria ended up calling Zeballos to inquire about his availability. His response? "Unfortunately, at this moment my relationship with him is not good. Each of us thinks differently and has our reasons, but they are completely opposite, making it hard for me to respect his word. In addition, there is pressure one feels in the Davis Cup, having to live a week with the team under his guidance, and not being able to be in sync since we think completely differently wouldn't benefit either the team or me. At this point in my career, I have to prioritize being well and adding value, so I couldn't do that in such a competition. I prefer to step aside and stay with my family. Obviously, I wish the guys the best," he told La Voz Del Estadio.
