Honours were even between Barbados and Indonesia after yesterday’s first day of Round One of the World Group 2 Davis Cup Americas tie at the National Tennis Centre at Wildey, St Michael, Barbados.
Barbados’ number one player, Darian King made light work of Indonesia’s number two seed, 18-year-old Gunawa Trismuwantara, winning 6-1,6-1 to give Barbados the lead early.
Barbadian, Kaipo Marshall was beaten 6-2, 6-4 by Indonesia’s top seed, Justin Barki to leave the series level.
King will have a chance to avenge his defeated teammate this morning when he teams up with long-time doubles partner, Haydn Lewis against Indonesia’s Barki and Febi Widhiyanto.
