GB's Sonay Kartal out of BJK Cup qualifier with injury

London, Apr 4 (UNI) Sonay Kartal has withdrawn from Great Britain's Billie Jean King Cup qualifier against Australia in Melbourne next week because of injury.
The absence of the British number two means the team will be without their four highest-ranked players, after Emma Raducanu, Katie Boulter and Francesca Jones were not included in the initial squad as they focus on their clay-court seasons.
It leaves world number 181 Harriet Dart as the team's highest-ranked singles player for the tie, which takes place on April 10-11, according to BBC sport.
