The last time the team played in Eastbourne was 11 years ago
and resulted in victory over Monaco.

said: “This tie is an exciting opportunity for tennis
fans to get behind their Great Britain team and be part of
the unique Davis Cup atmosphere. I have no doubt that tickets
will sell quickly in what will be a fantastic season of tennis
this summer in Eastbourne.”
