GB gear up for Japan cup test

Great Britain prepare to get their Billie Jean King Cup bid under way in the absence of Emma Raducanu as they face Japan in the tournament's quarterfinals in Shenzhen, China.

British number one Raducanu pulled out of the team event to focus on her wild card entry to the Korea Open, and as the fixtures clash she was replaced earlier this month by Fran Jones.

Katie Boulter, Sonay Kartal and Jodie Burr makeup the rest of the team, who start against Japan on September 18 at the Shenzhen Bay Sports Centre.
