Leon Smith: Shorten Davis Cup format

5 Live In Short

Available for over a year

Britain's Davis Cup captain Leon Smith has said changes should be made to the format of the Davis Cup to improve the competition and prevent player burnout. Smith wants matches reduced to best of three sets and the tournament staged every other year instead of annually. He also said the sport is badly missing the 'Big Four' rivalry between Roger Federer, Rafa Nadal, Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray. Nadal, Djokovic and Murray have been hampered by injury over the past year. From Sportsweek Sunday 4 February 2018
