PARIS - Defending champions Great Britain, Argentina and France gatecrashed their hosts' Davis Cup parties to edge closer to the semi-finals on Saturday. "Constant pressure is what makes the Davis Cup a great competition and I dealt with it pretty well," said Lajovic, the world number 81. Fabio Fognini had pulled Italy level by beating Juan Monaco 6-1, 6-1, 7-5 in a singles held over from Friday because of rain. Jack Sock stormed back from two sets down to defeat former US Open champion Cilic 4-6, 3-6, 6-3, 6-4, 6-4 before world number 12 John Isner cruised to a 6-4, 6-4, 6-3 victory over Borna Coric. Krajinovic had replaced Janko Tipsarevic, who was easily defeated by Kyle Edmund 6-3, 6-4, 6-0 in the first singles rubber on Friday.
