Davis Cup: Great Britain face Canada, Finland & Argentina in group stage

Great Britain will meet Canada, Finland and Argentina in the Davis Cup Finals group stage in Manchester in September.

The top two teams from each of the four groups qualify for the knockout stage of the Finals in Malaga in November.

The toughest group appears to be in Valencia, where Spain will take on Australia, France and the Czech Republic.

Defending champions Italy face the Netherlands, Belgium and Brazil in Bologna.

Germany, the USA, Slovakia and Chile will feature in the group being staged in Zhuhai.

The city was chosen to host it even though China are not involved.

It will mean a long flight from New York for some of the players, as the group stage begins just two days after the conclusion of the US Open.
