How about this for a bit of ‪#‎DavisCup‬ history? Ecuador's Emilio Gomez and Finland's Jarkko Nieminen (who came out of retirement just to help out his country!) both won 60 60 60 on Friday - the first time there have been two triple bagels on the same day - from Davis Cup facebook page.

Yes, he gave priority to his qualification for the Olympics. For this reason he's not competing.

Well, many players might actually skip Olympics, especially lower ranked since ITF decided not to award ATP/WTA ranking points. Despite being honor and unique opportunity even with "prestige" of being Olympic medalist, Olympic Games in tennis are not important that much.

That measure of not award ATP points seems to me absurd. You know why they did it? :(
