Donskoy made his Davis Cup debut in Europe/Africa Zone Group I match against Great Britain in Coventry.

Great Britain won the doubles to give the home side some hope going into the final day of matches, where Ward opened the day. Ward stunned the much higher seeded Russian Dmitry Tursunov 6âÂÂ4 5âÂÂ7 5âÂÂ7 6âÂÂ4 6âÂÂ4 to level the tie. Dan Evans ranked 325 would eventually complete a remarkable turnaround, with a straight sets victory over world no. 80 Donskoy. The last time Great Britain had come from 2-0 down to win a Davis Cup tie was 83 years ago against Germany. Consequently, Great Britain won a place in the 16-team World Group play-offs in September.
