Ireland have named their Davis Cup team to take on Syria in their World Group II play-off tie in February.
Michael Agwi, Peter Buldorini, Conor Gannon, Ammar Elamin and Charlie Barry make up the five-strong squad named by captain Conor Niland for the event at the UL Sport Arena in Limerick.
Ireland, who are seeded for the tie, will face the Syrians on Saturday, 7 February and Sunday, 8 February across five matches consisting of singles and one doubles match.
Limerick previously played host to a Davis Cup tie in Limerick back in February 2024 when Austria won a World Group I play-off.
"I'm thrilled to announce the team for our upcoming match against Syria," Limerick native Niland said.
"The last tie in my hometown of Limerick was very special. To now also have a Limerick player in Charlie Barry, whose recent performances on the Futures circuit more than justifies his selection, adds something extra. We all can't wait to compete in front of our home fans."
Davis Cup debutant Barry added that he was relishing representing his country in his home county.
"I'm extremely excited for the opportunity to perform on home soil. It’s always been a dream of mine to play Davis Cup for Ireland. Almost 20 years since I first picked up a tennis racket, it feels incredibly special to come full circle and play my first tie in Limerick," he said.
