Britain's Davis Cup hopes have been given a major boost after they beat Norway 4-0 to move into the final round of qualifying. The doubles match was won by Julian Cash and Lloyd Glasspool who, despite being the heavy favourites, faced a scare when their opponents took the second set.
However, the Brits eventually came from behind to win in straight sets, with Cash and Glasspool ultimately coming out on top 6-2, 2-6, 7-6. The victory means Britain will face either Ecuador or Australia later this year for a place in November's eight-team Finals.
The singles matches also saw success for the British team, with Jacob Fearnley beating Nicolai Budkov Kjaer 3-6, 6-4, 10-7 and Jack Draper defeating Durasovic.
Despite some concerns over injury, Britain were comfortable winners against a weakened Norway side who were without world number 12 Casper Ruud following the birth of his first child.
