Evernden heads challenge
NZPA staff correspondent Bangkok New Zealand’s top tennis player, Kelly Everhden, will meet his Thai counterpart in the first match of the Asian Zone Davis Cup semi-final against Thailand at the Hua Mark Stadium, in
Bangkok, today. Evernden will play Panumkorn Patchenil, who defeated New Zealand’s No. 3 player, Stephen Guy, at a tournament in Bangkok about three years ago. The New Zealand team’s non-playing captain, Jeff Simpson, said
that Panumkorn, who has had very little international experience, was clearly Thailand’s top player. Auckland’s Bruce Berlin will play the relatively unknown Wolapon Thongkamchu in the second singles today on the hard court surface.
