Novak Djokovic beats Cameron Norrie to knock Great Britain out of Davis Cup after Jack Draper loses to Miomir Kecmanovic

Great Britain have been knocked out of the Davis Cup at the quarter-final stage after they suffered a 2-0 defeat to Serbia on Thursday.

Novak Djokovic booked his side’s place in the semi-finals of the tournament, where the world No. 1 will face off against Jannik Sinner for the third time in the space of two weeks as Serbia face Italy.

His side got off to a flying start in the three-part tie, with Miomir Kecmanovic beating Jack Draper 7-6(2) 7-6(6).

In the tie-break, Draper conceded two double faults with the 21-year-old subsequently conceding the opening set.

He would come out to battle hard, but nothing could separate the pair with the second set also going to a tie-break.

Draper saved a match point at 6-5 and looked like he could rally, but Kecmanovic proved too powerful, emerging victorious 8-6.

Djokovic proved too strong for his opponent, claiming a 6-4 6-4 victory, taking control of the match with his powerful service, dropping just eight points on his own serve.

Serbia will now hope to advance to the final of the tournament in high hopes they can claim their second Davis Cup title.
