NealeFraser var visserligen en utomordentlig singelspelare med tre Grand Slam-titlar (därtill ett antal finaler) noterade under karriären, men han föredrog själv lagspel i Davis Cup och dubbelspel.
Fraser vann sina båda singelsmatcher, den första var öppnngsmatchen mot det årets Wimbledonmästare, Alex Olmedo.
Fraser advanced the point that the Challenge Round was eliminated because it afforded the cup holder too great an advantage.
Fraser's thrust is that while he concedes that the Davis Cup is not being received in this country as warmly as it might be, it is a leading force in tennis internationally, with the revenues it generates abetting tennis' growth in many countries.
Fraser noted that the Davis Cup competition gets down to a final four in April; thus four nations have adequate time to prepare for the possibility of being host to the final in December.
