Israel's Sela, Levy lose to Sweden in tennis Davis Cup World Group
By The Associated Press and Haaretz Services
Tags: Israel, Dudi Sela, Tennis 

Israeli tennis players Dudi Sela and Heral Levy both lost Sunday in the reverse singles matches of the Davis Cup World Group first-round series between Israel and Sweden in Ramat Hasharon.

Sela lost to Sweden's Thomas Johansson in three straight sets, 7-6, 6-1, 7-5, while Levy was defeated by Jonas Bjorkman in a four-set game, despite winning the first set 6-0.

The two losses mean that the Israeli team will fail to make history in qualifying for the tournament's quarterfinals stage, although Saturday's doubles match ended with Israel leading over Sweden 2-1, when Andy Ram and Yoni Erlich defeated Sweden's Simon Aspelin and Robert Lindstedt.
