Davis Cup defeat was down to poisoning, says Haas
0 Comments | AFP, November, 2007
BERLIN (AFP) — German tennis star Tommy Haas revealed on Wednesday he believes he was poisoned during his country's Davis Cup semi-final defeat to Russia in Moscow last September.
Haas was beaten in straight sets 6-2, 6-2, 6-2 by Igor Andreev in the singles as Russia claimed a 3-2 win over Germany on the weekend of September 21-23 to claim their place in the final against the USA.
"I have never felt so miserable in my whole life as I did on the Saturday and Sunday nights in Moscow," the 29-year-old told German agency SID.
"Of the eight hours I should have been sleeping, I spent six of them on the toilet."
Six weeks after the incident, Haas says he is still feeling the effects.
"My stomach is still doing some strange things."
