Vanuatu tennis star

Home finale for Vanuatu tennis star

This will be Games number seven for the 34-year-old, who was also a long-time representative for Pacific Oceania in the Davis Cup.

He hung up his racquet after winning bronze at the Pacific Games in Port Moresby two years ago, but was persuaded to give it one last shot on home soil.

"Cyrille [Mainguy], the President of Tennis Federation Vanuatu, managed to convince me but there was also the drive for me to play again, to do it in front of my friends, family and the home crowd, and just see how well I can play at home with the pressure," Jacobe said.
