Britain are just one win away in tomorrow's singles matches from a return to the World Group for the first time since 2008.
Yesterday, Andy Murray cruised to victory against 16 year old US Open Boys' champion, Borna Coric but in the second match Dan Evans lost heavily to Ivan Dodig to level the tie at 1-1.
In today's doubles, Murray played alongside Colin Fleming and they defeated the Croatian pair of Dodig and Mate Pavic in 4 sets.
That means that if Murray beats Dodig tomorrow in the first match of the day, Britain will be back in the elite group for the first time in five years. Murray's only played him once before, at last year's US Open, and Murray won in straight sets.
I don't see him losing that one so it should mean that Britain does get promotion.
If not then Dan Evans can seal the victory, he's expected to play Coric in the final rubber.

Murray beat Dodig in straight sets which means GB are now in the elite group.
Evans playing later (maybe now actually).
