The draw for the Davis Cup 2026 second-round qualifying tie between Great Britain and Ecuador at the Copper Box Arena is locked in.
An injury to Cameron Norrie has meant a late reshuffle for the hosts, who are playing their first Davis Cup tie in London for a decade and are the favourites to progress.
In his absence, Wimbledon breakout star Arthur Fery and Toby Samuel, who has won five ATP Challenger titles in the last year, will represent Great Britain in Saturday and Sunday’s singles matches.
Taking the court in the doubles are specialists Neal Skupski and Henry Patten, who are two of the world’s best in the format and have six major titles between them.
Ecuador are the lowest-ranked nation left in the Davis Cup but have produced a shock against Australia and will feel the pressure is on the hosts.
The two-day tie is a best-of-five rubber match – four singles matches and one doubles contest – with the winner set to progress to the finals and the loser heading back to qualifying early next year. The Davis Cup is set to conclude in Italy in November, when eight nations will have a shot at the title.
