Kenya secured their place in the Davis Cup Africa Group 4 for another year after defeating Mozambique 3-0 in the relegation playoff on the final day of the tournament staged in Nairobi.
Facing the prospect of dropping to Group 5, Kenya produced a composed performance to finish the competition on a high and preserve their status in the continental competition.
Making his Davis Cup debut, Liberty Kibue gave Kenya the perfect start with a dominant 6-0, 6-1 victory over Rui Costa Tembe in the opening singles match. The result means Kenya and Botswana retain their places in Group 4 for the 2027 season, while Mozambique and the Democratic Republic of Congo are relegated to Group 5.
With survival secured and a promising group of young players continuing to develop, Kenya’s attention now turns to building on this year’s experience and mounting a stronger challenge for promotion in 2027.
