Chris Eubanks on his Davis Cup dream

The 27-year-old will make his competitive debut on the US Davis Cup team; he will be seen playing alongside Taylor Fritz, Sebastian Korda, Austin Krajicek, and Rajeev Ram. Recently, as the tournament was about to start, Eubanks talked in an interview about his dream of wanting to play on the Davis Cup team and even listed some of the players he had seen growing up.

He said, “I’ve grown up as a kid and watched many Davis Cup ties and guys like Bob and Mike kind of be staples on the Davis Cup team….to be able to just be on the team and try to help contribute…is a big honor, so I’m excited for that.” 

Not only that, but he also highlighted that it’s quite an honor for him to represent his country and be able to contribute to the team and the game. The top-ranked American single tennis players will take America onto the 2024 quest for a record-extending 33rd championship in the same tournament.

While the other US teammates have already been a part of the team event, this year all eyes will be on Eubanks to see what he brings to the table for the team. However, a few months ago, he snubbed his dream Wimbledon run that he came across last year as his favorite moment of the year on the court.

When Eubanks looked back to his 2023 tennis season 

After having a year full of firsts and new opportunities, a few months ago, in an interview with Sports Illustrated, he looked back on his best time on the court. He said, “Maybe Miami, third round [against] Grégoire Barrère, just because I’ve never in my life felt that much emotion on a tennis court—and still haven’t. Even winning Mallorca wasn’t as emotional as I was right after that third-round match.” 

Not only that, he even thought about his Wimbledon quarter-final run, but he highlighted that it wasn’t that emotional, and it was kind of like smiling on a laughing journey. And now this year’s first will be his Davis Cup participation.
