SubscribeIsrael prevails, despite obstacles
In tennis, this time.
The Israeli squad reached the quarterfinals of the Davis Cup for the first time in more than 20 years as they upset host Sweden, 3-2. Harel Levy and Dudi Sela each beta their opponents in five sets.
Following the debacle in Dubai, officials in Malmo, Sweden warned that the match would have to be played with no fannies in the seats because of security issues, with organizers saying they couldn’t guarantee the safety of the Israelis. But they could guabarntee it for every other team? (Harvey Araton wrote about the silliness of that in a recent NY Times column.) As it was a lucky 300 got to watch the contest.
