Great Britain have been handed an away tie against Poland as they look to avoid relegation from the top tier of the Davis Cup.
Leon Smith’s side, seeded fourth in the draw, face the unseeded Poles in a World Group I best-of-five tie in September.
The winners will progress to the first qualifying phase of the 2026 event and maintain their chances of reaching the eight-team finals later that year.
