An article on Carmilla Online looks back at Italy's 1976 Davis Cup campaign, which ended with the final played in Chile under the Pinochet dictatorship. The piece, part of the 'Sport e dintorni' series by Gioacchino Toni and Eliana Di Caro, examines how tennis and politics intersected that year, revisiting what it meant for an Italian team to compete and win in authoritarian Chile.
