Mexico barely broke a sweat to complete a 4-0 rout of Bermuda in the country’s Davis Cup World Group II tie at W.E.R. Joell Tennis Stadium today (Sunday).
Facing the improbable task of coming back from a 0-2 deficit after a pair of singles losses to the visiting Central American nation, the Island’s miracle hopes were quickly dashed in doubles. Daniel Phillips and Trey Mallory both losers on Day 1 were routinely dispatched 6-2, 6-0 by the tandem of Luis Carlos Alvarez Valdes and Alan Magadan, giving Mexico an unassailable 3-0 lead.
The fourth match, involving the reverse singles, saw Tariq Simons make his official return to international duty, but with disappointing results, as he was no match for Mexico’s No. 3 player Alan Fernando Rubio Fierros. Simons was outclassed 6-0, 6-2 in just 57 minutes.
At 4-0 in favour of Mexico, Mallory and Magadan did not play the inconsequential fifth match.
As a result, Bermuda will be demoted to a lower rung of the competition.
