Yes, think it could be close.

Think it's going to go the fifth rubber unless Dan can produce a miracle ... and at the moment that seems unlikely.

Will Kyle be able to contain his nerves? If not, GB will be out this year.

Pospisil suddenly looked awfully tired at 3-2 up in that 3rd set, and a few errors crept in.

Evans seems a bad-tempered tyke though. Surprised he hasn't been done for foul language, unless my lip-reading skills are deceiving me. Maybe the noise in the stadium is his friend in that regard.

Oh well, into a fifth rubber we go ...

Don't think I'll stay up for all of it. Have an early start tomorrow.

Not Dan's day today. Pospisil played out of his skin.

Spain are through. Argentina v Italy has been plagued by rain delays today. Think they're playing again now.

Well, I must say, I never saw something like that coming. He seemed such a cheery lad on Friday. I guess he is very young to cope with such pressure, especially in front of a home crowd like that. It will give his captain even more grey hairs than he already has. (My Canadian friend informs me he is only 52. The job must have aged him!) I suppose, on the plus side, he was almost certain to lose. Imagine if that had happened when he was in a winning position.

So, France is our next opponent. Can't see us squeezing past them unless we have Andy playing. They have both strength and depth in their team and lots of possible players to select from. It will, however, fall at a busy time of yr (post Wimbles and the French exertions), so I would understand if he could not commit.
