Davis Cup Review - with Sam Barry and Players
Hello and welcome
back to the Irish Tennis Updates Podcast.
In this episode I’m
reviewing the recent Davis Cup tie in Limerick. I do this with the help of Sam
Barry, who was at the event commentating for Premier Sports on live TV within
Ireland. We both agree it was a fantastic event with a lot of positives for Irish
tennis.
Over the weekend I
got the chance to interview some of the players, including Dominic Thiem, Sebastian
Ofner and Michael Agwi. This episode also features the audio from these
interviews.
The draw for the
next round has been done and Ireland has drawn Tunisia away in the next round,
which will take place in September. There is a lot to build on for the Irish
team as they look ahead to this tie.

Ireland vs Austria Davis Cup Preview
Hello and welcome
back to the Irish Tennis Updates Podcast.
This time I’m
chatting to Davis Cup captain Conor Niland to look ahead to the upcoming tie
Ireland vs Austria in Limerick on 3rd and 4th February.
This is the first home tie in Ireland since 2015 and promises to be a great
weekend of tennis.
We chat about the
tie itself, the players likely to play on both sides and some of Ireland’s
recent ties that have led to this point. This includes recent away wins against
El Salvador and Barbados. We also talk about some of the tougher Davis Cup years
spent in group 3 and group 4.
This is a great
chat to get in the mood for the upcoming tie. If you’re lucky enough to have a
ticket, make sure to make some noise! And if not, still get involved over the
