 I guess that is what I meant about this particular event. It is too far away for yourself.

Maybe you wish just once it was down your end.

 They're all too far away!

Based on rankings , I think we should hope to win the group and certainly be in top 2 teams, but it is a tough group nonetheless.

Does anyone know if the BBC or maybe Prime are showing the Davis Cup matches this season?

 Certainly Glasgow has hosted a lot of Davis Cup matches, and will now host this and the BJK Cup Finals.

But outside that there are very few individual events held in Scotland other than Glasgow's annual futures event and in occasional years a challenger.

The south of England clearly has loads so their citizens can have no issues. Rather less up north but still such as the Ilkley Challenger and futures events and hey less then to travel to Glasgow.

I assume it is in the first place up to cities and venues to put forward a good case to be the British applicant that the LTA (?) then puts forward to the ITF as a candidate to host such international team events.

 We will know theres a conspiracy if Glasgow gets Eurovision 2023 as well!

 Lee hasn't posted on his website yet (tennisontelly.uk) so probably hasn't been announced yet. Possibly Discovery+ (Eurosport) as they had coverage before.

 In the past BBC has shown domestic ties of course - fingers crossed for that and Fed Cup

 Most of us in Northern England would much prefer Glasgow and Scotland. I hate going south for just about anything other than Silverstone..

So pleased Kosmos have seen sense with changing the format. At least now one in four nations get home ties for group stage. The statement "tennis needs a world cup", I.e. all in one place at the same time is looking like it was I'll conceived as most of course knew.

This will be AM last opportunity to play DC in Scotland. He's got to be one of the five. Personally Joe and Neal have not performed in the DC, I'd take Jack ahead of them.

Sadly looks like Frances Tiafoe has pulled out of the US team for next week after his great US Open run. Name disappeared from team on the website .  Which, by the way, looks good

Davis Cup started yesterday in Glasgow and other venues - easy to miss.

In Glasgow, Netherlands won a tight battle with Kazakhstan 2-1, winning both singles in 3 sets but losing the doubles.

Elsewhere, Australia , Sweden (over Argentina) and Canada won their openers.

Today, starting at 4pm, Britain play USA.

Does anyone know if this is televised at all- presumably the BBC wont cover it given the Queens passing, even they had planned to? Is Prime covering it in the UK?
