Aimee Gibson and Catherine Rose won the opening rubber 6-0, 6-2 over Julia Pacocha and Magdalena Kiszczynska, and Chloe de la Mare and Victoria Nicholas closed out the tie in three sets to confirm the 2-0 sweep. It caps an unbeaten run through the European qualifiers for the British women. ## Netherlands also through The Netherlands added a men's spot alongside Germany, beating Belgium 2-0 in the other decisive tie played in Madrid over the same weekend.
