2010 Davis Cup Africa Zone Group III

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Europe/Africa Zone was one of the three zones of regional Davis Cup competition in 2010.

In the Europe/Africa Zone there were three different tiers, called groups, in which teams competed against each other to advance to the upper tier. Group III was divided into a European zone and an African zone. The Group III Africa tournament was held in Royal Tennis Club de Marrakech, Marrakesh, Morocco, May 5–8, on outdoor clay courts. [1]
