Kyle Edmund & Dan Evans must be consistent on tour - Leon Smith

Neither Edmund nor Evans has reached a final on the ATP TourGreat Britain's Davis Cup captain Leon Smith wants Dan Evans and Kyle Edmund to produce consistent results on tour, saying the team event is "a bonus".

Evans, 26, and 21-year-old Edmund were part of the team whose title defence was ended by a 3-2 defeat by Argentina in Glasgow at the weekend.

"The most important thing for Dan, Kyle and the others is doing a great job week in, week out," said Smith.

"Davis Cup is just two, three - in a great year, four - times a year."

Edmund and Evans have both reached career-high rankings this month after promising performances at the US Open, the final Grand Slam of the year.
