Even as they faced triple match point and the prospect of a crushing defeat in the decisive match of the entire week, Dan Evans and Neal Skupski refused to balk. They dug deep, inspired by the roars of the crowd after every point, and somehow they recovered to produce one of the greatest wins of their careers.
In the process, Great Britain pulled off a remarkable comeback deep in the decisive doubles rubber to defeat France 2-1 and advance to the Davis Cup quarter-finals. After wins over Australia and Switzerland this week, the team finished the week unbeaten and top of their group.
