Andy Murray and his doubles teammate Joe Salisbury were defeated after midnight by the American doubles team of Rajeev Ram and Jack Sock, with a score of 7:5, 4:6, 5:7.
After the defeat, Murray spoke out and expressed his great dissatisfaction with the schedule of competitions and matches in the Davis Cup.
-” We even saw it at the US Open last Sunday. This is something that should be resolved and thought about in tennis. I don’t think it looks professional. Probably half of the people from the audience, who came to the beginning of the program, missed the last match, which is a shame. It’s not because they didn’t want to stay, there were children, you can’t stay with them. If you have to catch a bus or a train, you can’t stay,” says Murray and adds:
-” It is not easy for the audience to maintain a great atmosphere for 10 hours.”
In the second round, Great Britain meets the Netherlands, who were better than Kazakhstan at the beginning of the competition in Group D.
