WIN FITS THE BILL

A DEBUT win for Billy Harris sealed victory for Great Britain in their Davis Cup opener against Finland in Manchester: Harris held his nerve in a tight second set against Otto Virtanen to secure a 6-4 7-6 Victory and give the hosts an unassailable 2-0 lead.

The win, coupled with Dan Evans, 7-6 6-2 success against Eero Vasa earlier, ensured Britain avoided any missteps as they try to book their spot at the last-eight event in Malaga in November. Harris more than justified captain Leon Smiths decision to give US Open semi-finalist Jack Draper extra rest ahead of ties against Argentina and Canada later this week, with a top-two group finish needed.
