IT COULD be a September to remember for Barbadosin tennis as the country could get the opportunity to stay in Group 1 of the Davis Cup competition.
Barbados had impressive victories over much higher rated teams Chile, El Salvador and Mexico, having been promoted from Group 2, but then lost 2-3 to the Dominican Republic in March, putting the country’s ranking in jeopardy.
