BARBADOS and Guatemala are still on level terms. No surprises there.
Both teams are exactly where they want, and expect to be following yesterday’s eventless first day of a Davis Cup Group II Americas tie that predictably saw opposing straight-sets opening singles wins at the National Tennis Centre.
