British Davis Cup Captain Unsure About Including Jack Draper for Tie Against Finland

Posted : 10 September 2024

British Davis Cup captain Leon Smith has not yet decided whether to include US Open semi-finalist Jack Draper in the team’s upcoming tie against Finland. Draper, who reached the last four at the US Open before losing to Jannik Sinner, arrived in Manchester on Tuesday and is scheduled to practice with the squad.

 

Smith is evaluating Draper’s condition to determine if he can contribute effectively during the Davis Cup Finals group stage. Despite Draper’s strong performance in New York, Smith is concerned about his energy levels and overall readiness for the matches this week.

 

The British team is without Andy Murray for the first time since his retirement, adding a different dynamic to the squad. Dan Evans and Neal Skupski remain, offering experienced support, while potential debutants Billy Harris and Henry Patten could step up, alongside British number two Cameron Norrie, who is sidelined due to an arm injury.

 

Smith commended Draper’s enthusiasm and commitment but emphasized the need to assess his fitness carefully. The team will face Finland, Argentina, and Canada in the round-robin stage at Manchester’s AO Arena, with the top two teams advancing to the finals in Malaga from November 19-24.
