Perry and Hughes, from whom до much was expected in the doubles, fell victims to Nunoi and Satoh, and Perry, Austin and Loe, the Davis Cup singles nominees could ad- vance no further than the last eight. If judged therefore on recent por- formances, Australia will start favourites to-day.
On the other hand Britain's Davis Cup record during the last four years is a good one. Their players have the fighting spirit and all are capable of producing tennis sufficient to de- feat the world's best.
