History

[edit]

Tunisia competed in its first Davis Cup in 1982.[citation needed]

Tunisia was suspended from Davis Cup play for 2014, because the Tunisian Tennis Federation was found to have ordered Malek Jaziri not to compete against an Israeli, Amir Weintraub.[1] Before the suspension, Tunisia was assigned to the Europe/Africa Zone of Group III.[citation needed]
