- British No 1 beats Canadian No 1 Fernandez 6-2, 6-4
- Raducanu holds off Marino’s comeback for 6-0, 7-5 win
Katie Boulter strode to the baseline on Sunday for one of the most important matches of her career with a considerable amount of pressure on her shoulders. Just a year ago and a little over 100 miles away, Leylah Fernandez had inspired her Canadian team to their first Billie Jean King Cup triumph in Seville. Now, in order to extend her own team’s supreme run, Boulter had to take out one member of the defending champions.
In this special final week of her greatest season, Boulter spectacularly rose to the occasion once more as she brushed Fernandez aside 6-2, 6-4 to lead Great Britain into the semi-finals of the BJK Cup with a commanding 2-0 victory.
