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 weekend with live scores and live streaming. Good luck team Ireland!   If you enjoy this episode, please subscribe to the show and leave a comment on iTunes. Also, share the show with anyone you think may be interested.
