It was a great weekend for Namibian tennis as national senior to junior teams excelled on the international stage. Namibia’s senior men’s team qualified for the Davis Cup World Group II after coming third at the Africa Group III tournament in Bujumbura, Burundi, on Saturday.
In a very close competition, the top three teams – Senegal, Burundi and Namibia – all finished with four wins and one defeat, but Senegal narrowly won the tournament with a better set win ratio.
The top three teams all qualified for the Davis Cup World Group II, with Namibia now doing so for the third year in a row.
Namibia got off to a winning start with a 2-1 victory against the Ivory Coast on 11 August, before losing 2-1 to Burundi the next day.
