Jack Draper has been added to Britain\u2019s Davis Cup team for next week\u2019s matches in Manchester following his run to the fourth round of the US Open.<\/p>\n

The 21-year-old again showed his huge potential by outperforming the rest of Britain\u2019s singles players in New York, pushing eighth seed Andrey Rublev to four sets before bowing out on Monday.<\/p>\n

Draper has struggled with injuries throughout the season and was a doubt for the US Open because of a shoulder problem so it was encouraging that his body held up through four best-of-five-set matches.<\/p>\n

He joins Cameron Norrie, Dan Evans, Andy Murray and Neal Skupski in the side for matches against Australia, Switzerland and France beginning next Wednesday at the AO Arena.<\/p>\n

It is the second time Leon Smith has called up Draper, who stayed on the bench during February\u2019s victory over Colombia.<\/p>\n

His inclusion presents captain Smith with a tricky selection decision given Norrie, Evans and Murray are significantly more experienced but none of the trio have had a great season, with British number one Norrie in particular in something of a rut.<\/p>\n

Calling up Draper also indicates that Smith will rely on Wimbledon champion Skupski and Evans as his doubles partnership having overlooked Joe Salisbury, who is in the quarter-finals in New York with American partner Rajeev Ram.<\/p>\n

Britain need to finish in the top two of the four-team group to make it through to the final stages of the competition in Malaga in November.<\/p>\n
