An imperious Serbia thoroughly outperformed Great Britain in the quarter-finals of the Davis Cup in Málaga as they advanced to the final four with a 2-0 win on Thursday night.

In the essential opening rubber between the two second seeded singles players, Miomir Kecmanovic performed spectacularly to defeat Jack Draper 7-6(2), 7-6(6) in a high-quality tussle and record the first point for Serbia. Novak Djokovic, the best player in the world, closed off the tie by comfortably defeating Cameron Norrie 6-4, 6-4 to seal victory for Serbia.
