BELMONT’S AUGUSTO RICCIARDI PLAYS FOR HIS NATIVE URUGUAY
IN THE 2004 DAVIS CUP
Former Belmont tennis player Augusto Ricciardi became the school’s first tennis player to compete
in an international team tournament when he represented his home country of Uruguay in the Davis
Cup in April of 2004.
Ricciardi, who graduated from Belmont in the spring of 2003, played for his home country in
doubles as Uruguay played the Dominican Republic in a second round Americas Zone Group II match
on April 9-11. In his doubles match, Victor Estrella and Johnson Garcia of the Dominican Republic beat
Ricciardi and his partner Marcel Felder in five sets; 3-6, 2-6, 6-3, 7-5, 6-4. Uruguay ended up losing
the team competition, 4-1.
“Even though I have competed in international junior competitions in the past, playing Davis Cup
is really special,” said Ricciardi. “The Davis Cup is the most you can aspire for in tennis because you
are representing your country. I am glad I was able to make the team and play at such a high level.”
The winner of Group II headed to the Americas Zone Group I for 2005, which is one level below
the main Davis Cup draw. The Davis Cup is the largest team tennis competition in the world and it is
produced by the International Tennis Federation. It annually includes some of the top male tennis players in the world playing for their home nations.
In his four-year Belmont career, Ricciardi became one of Belmont’s top tennis players. He was a
two-time All-Atlantic Sun honoree and holds the school record for career singles winning percentage
and is second in BU history in career singles wins with 46.
“My participation in Davis Cup indicates the high level the Belmont tennis program is playing at
right now,” said Ricciardi. “My four years at Belmont were really special to me and I credit my teammates, Coach Jim Madrigal, and the entire Athletic Department for my success right now.”
