Norrie eager for Davis Cup success

- By ELEANOR CROOKS

Cameron Norrie is hoping to end an incredible season by helping Great Britain achieve more Davis Cup success.

The 26-year-old has climbed from 71 in the rankings at the start of the year to a career high of 12, winning Indian Wells along the way, and finds himself leading the British team in just his third appearance in the event.

Norrie has played 74 tour level matches this season, winning 50, and he said: "Obviously it's been a long year for all of us. We played a lot of matches.

"I think it's great to end the year like this as a team. We're all very tight, we've had a great week so far of practice, a lot of games. We've been really enjoying ourselves.

"I feel refreshed. I feel ready to compete. No better way to finish the year than to play for your country, play as a team."

Britain will play their group matches behind closed doors in Innsbruck because of Austria's lockdown, taking on France today and the Czech Republic tomorrow.
