Arcilla, the country’s No. 1 netter, was dealt a heart-breaking 2-6, 6-1, 6-7 (4) defeat by the second seeded Febi Widhiyanto in men’s singles quarterfinals.

For Johnny Arcilla, this meant enduring cramps on his right leg before savoring a sweet victory over Mosaad Al-Jazaaf that saved the day for the Philippines in the opening singles of its Davis Cup Asia Oceania Zone playoff with Kuwait at the oven-hot PCA indoor court in Plaza Dilao, Paco yesterday.

Though limping and hurting in the fourth set, Arcilla mustered enough courage to complete a 7-6 (7-4), 5-7, 6-1, 6-4 win over Al-Jasaaf that gave the RP netters a headstart in the tie.

For the first time in years, an all-out-of-towner team is carrying the Philippine colors in men's tennis, and it gets its baptism of fire as it takes on the battle-scarred Indonesian team in the first round of the Asia-Oceania Zone Davis Cup competitions Feb. 4-6 at the Rizal Memorial Tennis Center.
