- Great Britain top Group C after hard-fought victory in Innsbruck
- Salisbury and Skupski beat Vesely and Machac 6-4, 6-2
The depth of Great Britain’s Davis Cup team was tested on Sunday afternoon when they stood a set away from defeat against a fearless, young Czech Republic team punching far above its weight. However, under the burden of Davis Cup finals pressure, they found a way with a 2-1 win to finish top of their group and reach the quarter-finals.
After Dan Evans was brushed aside by the 21-year-old Tomas Machac, who secured a career-best 6-2, 7-5 victory, Cameron Norrie survived three turbulent sets to beat the 20-year-old Jiri Lehecka 6-1, 2-6, 6-1 and push the tie into a doubles rubber to decide the winner of their group.
