Juan Martin Del Potro wary of match vs. CroatiaApril 5, 2012 - 10:52 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - The Argentine Davis Cup team is wary of Croatia ahead of their clash this coming weekend in Buenos Aires on clay. Croatia is led by Marin Cilic and Ivo Karlovic, while Juan Martin Del Potro, David Nalbandian, and Juan Monaco head Argentina. "They can beat anyone. I don’t think there is a big difference. I’ve known Cilic for 12 years. He improved his positions at Indian Wells and Miami and remains very dangerous,” Del Potro said. While Del Potro and Nalbandian will play singles on Friday, April 6, Monaco, who just reached the semis of Miami, could step in on Sunday. Nalbandian said that the courts are playing fast, according to tennis.com. Top stories Armenian gymnast, Olympic bronze medalist Artur Davtyan has reached the finals of the World Cup.
