Barbados’ tennis “King” has no plans on stepping down from his throne anytime soon.The island’s top-ranked tennis player, Darian King has fully recovered from a wrist injury, which plagued him for the past two years, and he is aiming to return to the form that enabled him to achieve a career-best ranking of 106 five years ago, the same year he qualified for the United States Open.Last weekend, the 30-year-old played a critical role helping Barbados remain in Group 2 of the Davis Cup with a crucial 7-6, 6-3 win over Pacific Oceania’s top-seeded Colin Sinclair in the reverse singles.King said this was only the beginning of his comeback, and he was focussed on returning to his peak form.“I’m starting back now,” he told BARBADOS TODAY. “At the beginning of the year, I just played before this a final, which still gives me hope that I still have it in me to continue and rewrite history as where I was before when I was ranked 100 in the world.
