03/17/2010 - London, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - John Lloyd has stepped down at Britain's Davis Cup captain.

The Brits have lost their last five ties, with its' most-recent one being an embarrassing setback at the hands of Lithuania. World No. 4 Andy Murray, the only Brit ranked inside the world's top 100, did not play against the Lithuanians, who have only three world-ranked players, all of whom are teenagers.

Britain will next host Turkey in a relegation playoff, which its needs to win in order to avoid dropping into Europe/Africa zone Group III.

The 55-year-old Lloyd is a former Davis Cup player, reached the Australian Open final in 1977, and was once married to women's tennis great Chris Evert.

Britain owns nine Davis Cup titles, but has appeared in only one World Group final (1978) since 1937.
