1 In the 1997 tie against Switzerland, South Africa's two points came as a result of the male Swiss competitor, Marc Rosset, withdrawing from his singles match and being unable to compete in the mixed doubles due to injury.[1][2]
2 In the 1999 tie against Zimbabwe, the South African team conceded one point as a result of their choice not to compete in the mixed doubles.[1]
