- Salisbury and Skupski pay for missed chances in tiebreak
- Evans wins but Norrie beaten by Struff as GB bow out
Great Britain’s Davis Cup team arrived in Innsbruck, Austria filled with ample hope about their prospects after a great year for all their players involved, and during their visit they registered two solid wins, but on Tuesday evening they were unable to take a further step forward as they exited the competition with a bitter 2-1 defeat by Germany.
A turbulent day began with the high of Dan Evans bouncing back after a tough singles loss on Sunday to play a consistent, disciplined match in defeating Peter Gojowyczk 6-2, 6-1. In the singles rubber between the No 1s, Cameron Norrie was edged out 7-6 (6), 3-6, 6-2 by a spirited Jan-Lennard Struff.
