Match one: Norrie shows composure to give Britain the lead

Cam Norrie sealed the opening win for Great Britain, overcoming a gutsy performance from Poland’s Tomasz Berkieta to win 7-6(9), 6-4.

Norrie showed his quality to come through in an hour and 40 minutes and get his first Davis Cup win since 2023.

“It’s nice to be back playing for my country,” Norrie said. “It’s my first time here. Tomasz is a young up-and-coming player, he’s very talented, got a big serve and hits the ball very well off both sides. I knew it wasn’t going to be easy, not much rhythm – he played really well today and challenged me.”

The 30-year-old came closest to breaking in the first set, leading 5-4 with deuce on the 2024 Roland Garros finalists’ serve. However, Berkieta kept his nerve to confidently slap a forehand winner past Norrie to clinch the game before eventually forcing a tie-break.

The Briton had to stare down two set points at 6-4 in the tie-break but Berkieta went too big on his shots in crucial moments – making key errors off both wings.

Norrie continued to battle and used experience to his advantage and the pressure told. At 9-9, the Pole hit a double fault and on his fourth set point Norrie hit big lefty out-swinging serve to clinch the set after an hour.

Eager to stay on the front foot, Norrie got the first break of the match early in the second set. A rather deflated looking Berkieta left an easy volley only for it to drop in before making another costly mistake on break point.

Berkieta had a break back point with Norrie trying to serve out match but couldn’t make it count as Norrie’s third ace helped wrap up a hard fought win for his country.
