The The Spanish Federation confirmed a week ago the tennis players who would make up the Spanish team in Paris.

In the individual boxes there will be Carlos Alcaraz, Rafael Nadal, Pablo Carre�o, Alejandro Davidovich, Sara Sorribes and Cristina Bucsa. And for the doubles competition, the dates of Carlos Alcaraz and Rafael Nadal, as well as Sara Sorribes and Cristina Bucsa, were already confirmed. It remained to be determined who would accompany Granollers, world number 2 in doubles. The candidates were Carreño or Alejandro Davidovich. The final choice has been that of the one who was Olympic bronze in Tokyo.

The last time Carre�o and Granollers played together was in November 2021 in the Davis Cup against Ecuador because Feliciano L�pez was unwell and gave his place to the Asturian. They beat Gonzalo Escobar and Diego Hidalgo 6-4, 6-7 (5) and 7-6 (2). Previously they had also played in some tournaments such as the 2021 ATP Cup
