The Zimbabwe tennis team bounced back to the Davis Cup World Group II next year after beating Senegal 2 – 1 to top Group B at the Africa Group III championships in Pretoria, South Africa on Friday.
Zimbabwe, led by Benjamin Lock, had the worst possible start to the competition losing 2 – 1 to Namibia on the first day of the competition before making a comeback with wins over Benin and Senegal.
Other players in the team include rising star Takura Mhwandagara, Liberty Nzula and Benedict Badza -who was the number two player.
The country was relegated to the less fashionable Africa Group III after losing 3-2 to Uruguay in a rain-interrupted World Group II Playoff tie at Harare Sports Club back in February.
Meanwhile, the team will face off against South Africa tomorrow for the African championship title with play -to be screened live on SABC- scheduled to start at 10am.
