Jack Draper claimed an emphatic victory on his long-awaited return from injury as Great Britain took control of their Davis Cup qualifying tie against Norway.
British number one Draper has spent five months on the sidelines with a bruised bone in his service arm.
His comeback was delayed twice by the injury and he missed January's Australian Open to complete his recovery.
However, he served well, moved sharply and showed some brutal ball-striking to bear Viktor Durasovic 6-2 6-2 in his first competitive match for 164 days.
Sterner tests will await world number 13 Draper, who is ranked 300 places above Durasovic, but he will be relieved to have rattled through a convincing win after a long spell out.
