    I didn't realise Evans (#53) and Edmund (#55) had climbed so high in the rankings.

    Croatia beat France in the other semi-final.

    GB will play the final at home if they get through.

    (And the final will be in Croatia if Argentina make it through.)
  • Showing our football stars what desire and commitment looks like and is needed in order to succeed.

    Does Annabelle Croft cut and style her own hair?
  • Definitely does her bush I am told.
  • Home to Croatia if we can make the final. Come on Dan!!!

    Go on Dan Evans!
  • 1930 / 2013 the last times we were 2-0 down and won 3-2 in a Davis Cup match according to the BBC.

    Last time it happened they said we beat Russia with Dan Evans winning the fifth rubber

    If it wasn't for the history between these two countries I'd think this tie is rigged. Why did del Potro play the doubles and not the second singles?

    Yeah I think I saw he is there

    I believe that Bercow is a qualified LTA coach

    Can't remember the last time I watched a top class tennis match where neither player uses a double-handed backhand.

  • Mayer really played well today, Evans was well beaten ultimately
  • 1-1 between Croatia and Argentina, after Cilic wins in 5 sets and Del Potro wins in 4

    While it would have been great to see GB in the final again, there's no way Andy Murray would have been able to win all these tournaments this autumn and in the O2, AND play in the Davis Cup.

    Andy ending the year as Number 1 is far more beneficial for British Tennis.
