Highlights from the Cincinnati Open match between Arthur Fery and Jack Duckworth.

Arthur Fery has been named in the Great Britain Davis Cup team for the home qualifying tie against Ecuador next month.

The 24-year-old, who memorably reached the semi-finals at Wimbledon this summer, is joined by Cameron Norrie and doubles players Henry Patten and Lloyd Glasspool.

Fery featured in Brtain's Davis Cup play-off against Poland in September 2025, beating Olaf Pieczkowski in straight sets to help seal progress to the 2026 Qualifiers.

There remains a fifth spot up for grabs, which could go to Jack Draper if the former world No 4 can get back to fitness after an injury-ravaged year.

Captain Leon Smith said: "We know Ecuador will be right up for the challenge, so to be able to call on our top two singles players and two of the world's best doubles players - all of whom have had good results in recent weeks - gives us a great chance of securing the win."

The tie takes place at London's Copper Box on September 19-20, with the winners going through to the Final 8 in November.
