Done!

 

As an aside I hadnt realised Neal Skupski had played 2 DC rubbers, does anyone know when and with whom/against etc he played?

Ken apparently played 2 rubbers in 2010 - I dont think Neal has played before.

One was Turkey in Leon's first match as captain. The other one is a mystery to me.

 Thanks - I wondered, I took the records above as a direct lift from Wiki, so quite possibly they mixed Ken and Neal up...in which case I have no idea if the other records are correct so please treat with caution!

He's always been a bit of an enigma, but I didn't realise Bublik has currently ranked as high as that, so on paper at least, the GB-Kazakh rankings are pretty similar between the top 2 players, although we do of course have the trump card with Andy.

Jamie posted a video on Instagram calling Neal a rookie and Neal spoke for a little bit and mentioned it was 7 years since Ken had been in the team.

I was planning to head up to Madrid for the day on Sunday. There is an "open" training day where entry is free to go and watch the teams practise. Sadly it is sold out already so at least I have saved myself a tank of petrol.

The draw appears to be out for GBs match on Weds.

Murray vs Griekspoor (of the "T" variety)
Evans vs Haase
Doubles.

Play starts at 11am. (That might be 11am Spanish time, therefore 10am UK time).

Edit

I should add that there seem to be a fair number of tickets still available for the GB matches.

So tomorrow, this new tournament begins. Just noted that with the exception of Spain's two round robin matches, all the other matches still have plenty of tickets available. The Centre Court is huge, so perhaps this is not surprising, but Stadiums 2&3 are not that big and yet they are still well short of being full. I have to say that this was highly predictable.

 Hi Helen, sadly not - Eurosport ( I think) have the British rights and so it wont be on free to air at all. 

As someone who doesnt  have Eurosport, disappointing, but it is what it is.

Is anyone aware of where there is a schedule of play for each day/today at all. Davis Cup site doesnt seem to have one, or if it does it is well hidden. Havent been able to find one elsewhere. Presumably Davis Cup site will have live scores up later as well once play gets under way this evening?
