Games with Roberto Cid Subervi of the Dominican Republic are worth watching as the 29-year-old player has climbed to 211th in the men's singles rankings and 262nd in the men’s doubles rankings.
With this tough test on the horizon, Vietnam's top tennis player Ly Hoang Nam coached by fitness expert Faruk Celikel has trained very hard to prepare for the challenge. Nam attended the M25 Vale do Lobo Tournament 2022 which was held in late February in Portugal.
According to schedule, the games are expected to take place on March 4 -5.
If Vietnam beat the Dominican Republic, then they will qualify for the 2022 Davis Cup World Group II. If they lose, the team will then have to play in Group III of the Asia-Oceania zone.
Vietnam triumphed in Group III of the Asia/Oceania zone in 2019, although they missed out on a place in World Group II after losing 4-0 to Morocco in the play-offs in 2020.
