Shapovalov, from Richmond Hill, Ont., lost 6-4, 6-4 to Daniel Evans, while Montreal’s Auger-Aliassime beat Cameron Norrie 7-6 (4), 6-3.

Shapovalov, who tested positive for COVID-19 after landing in Australia last month, sat out the team’s opening tie against the United States, which the Americans won 3-0.

All four teams in Group C — Canada, Great Britain, the U.S. and Germany — are now 1-1. However, Canada has the worst match win-loss record at 2-4.

Canada faces Germany and the U.S. meets Great Britain in the final tie for each team in the group stage on Thursday.
