Great Britain are through to the semi-final of the Billie Jean King Cup Finals after knocking out the defending champions, Canada.

Emma Raducanu and Katie Boulter have not dropped a set across Britain’s two ties so far this week.

And captain Anne Keothavong has been blown away by their performances.

After GB sealed their spot in the last four, Keothavong said: “I think it’s important to enjoy the moment and really recognise what fantastic performances we saw this evening from Emma first, you know, the way she held it together in that second set, on her service games, a number of break points she had to save.

“I thought that was a really gutsy set of tennis from her to close it out the way she did.

“And then from Katie, to go out there and, look, if you sit there courtside, you hopefully have a greater appreciation for her weight of shot, the speed she’s playing at, and the improvements she’s made physically and in her tennis, the way she went out there and grabbed hold of the match against a highly talented young player.”
