Davis Cup Tie Finely Poised

Marcos wins to leave Cyprus with a chance of victory



Bulgaria and Cyprus claimed one victory apiece in their Davis Cup Europe/Africa Group II Playoff match in Sofia, Bulgaria. Marcos won the first rubber of the match with resounding ease, dispatching Tzvetan Mihov 6-1 6-4 6-1. Marcos is the highest ranked player in the whole tie, and his superior talent was showcased in a professional victory.

Unfortunately, team colleague Philippos Tsangaridis was unable to follow Marcos with a victory of his own, losing to the Bulgarian number one player, Dimitar Kutrovsky 6-0 6-2 6-2.

With Marcos expected to win his next singles rubber, the doubles match increasingly looks like the battleground where the tie will be won or lost.

Cyprus Wins Gripping Doubles Tie

Leads Bulgaria 2-1...



Marcos and Rares Cuzdriorean were involved in a gripping doubles match Saturday in Sofia, but held their nerve to prevail 6-2, 6-2, 3-6, 4-6, 6-4 against Todor Enev and Dimitar Kutrovsky to give Cyprus a 2-1 lead over Bulgaria in the Davis Cup Group II clash.

Victory gave Marcos his 55th Davis Cup victory, an outstanding achievement in his eight-year professional career. He will now have the chance to close out victory for Cyprus when he faces World No. 578 Kutrovsky in the first of the reverse singles rubbers on Sunday.
