    The Australian Davis Cup Tennis Foundation News Produced for Members of the Foundation ABN 90 004 905 060 October 2015 Britain defeats Australia in Davis Cup Semi-Final Congratulations to the British Davis Cup team led by Andy Murray which defeated Australia 3-2 in a hard fought match in Glasgow from 17-19 September. Murray won both his singles and teamed with his brother John to edge out Groth and Hewitt in five sets in the crucial doubles rubber. Murray received fantastic support from the 8000 strong crowd which was also appreciative of Lleyton Hewitt playing in what was to be his final Davis Cup match. The Australian team showed great fighting spirit and camaraderie and, with the recall of Kyrgios, will be a force to be reckoned with in Davis Cup in the next few years. It is anticipated that Hewitt will take over from Masur as Captain in 2016. Page !1 Around the traps…… Put up your hand if someone has taken your seat! Australian Captain Wally Masur is giving Sam Groth a go as Captain during Kokkinakis’ dead rubber so that he can have a chat with mate Pat Cash. Sam did a good job as Kokkinakis had an impressive straight sets win. Australia v USA The next tie will be in Australia from 6-8 March 2016 against our old rivals, the USA. Melbourne Park Tour Neale Fraser will be conducting a guided tour of Melbourne Park for ADCTF Members on Monday 16 November. 10.30 am to 12 noon, cost $20 (includes cup of coffee).

    THE US OPEN T O Throughout its 133-year history, the US Open has dared its entrants to dream U R I N big, to strive for excellence in each and every match, and in turn the Open has N F A O done the same.

In fact, more than R C O I L 700,000 fans on-site make the US Open the world’s largest-attended annual sporting event, and U I T N more than 53 million online visitors plus a global television audience share in the thrill and excite - Y D & ment each year.
