Four years after escaping the lowly zonal groups of the Billie Jean King Cup with a monumental win inside a pulsating Copper Box, Great Britain returned to the same venue as one of the best tennis nations in the world and confidently maintained their spot among the elite with a commanding 3-1 win over Sweden.
Katie Boulter continued to play her role as Great Britain’s leader to perfection as she delivered her second win of the tie with a tough 6-1, 7-6 (5) win over Kajsa Rinaldo Persson. The contest was sealed by a solid performance from Harriet Dart, who kept her head and maintained her composure as she defeated Caijsa Hennemann 7-5, 6-2.
