Keep - Ad-Diyar source demonstrates SIGCOV in Lebanon. One of Lebanon's top tennis players (most wins in Davis Cup), featured at GS level and is an NCAA Division I doubles champion. Jevansen (talk) 00:10, 17 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Big Keep this is like the 4th one of these frivolous deletion requests from this same editor. No. 1 collegiate player.... 30 Davis cup wins... easily notable. Fyunck(click) (talk) 07:36, 17 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Fyunck(click) If you believe this article is "easily notable" you can suggest draftifying the article or adding sources yourself instead of saying "Big Keep" without any possibility of passing GNG. Anyway some sources were added later. It is not easy at all for it to pass GNG as only one source provided significant coverage after some addition of references.

No, I suggest keeping the article. Fyunck(click) (talk) 19:13, 17 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Fails both WP:GNG and WP:SIGCOV. Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 13:16, 23 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Keep - sufficiently sourced and notable per reasons given by Jevansen.--Wolbo (talk) 18:31, 24 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - WP:NTENNIS suggests notability by way of multiple Davis Cup appearances (I admit I have no idea what "played in 20 ties" means, but the source indicates he appeared in his group's finals in 1997 and 2000 and has 30 total wins), and also as it appears that NCAA Division I Men's Tennis Championship winners are inherently notable (as evidenced by the existence of the {{NCAA Division I tennis men's doubles champions}} navbox which is mostly bluelinks). AfD isn't cleanup. Ivanvector (^Talk/_Edits) 18:51, 24 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Keep for the reasons listed above. His challenger title in doubles and grand slam appearance ensures that the article passes muster.--Leonstojka (talk) 06:47, 25 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
