THE best woman player on the planet could stand in Heather Watson's way on her Fed Cup debut after Great Britain were given the toughest draw imaginable.

Israel is the host for next week's 15-team competition in the Europe/Africa Zone Group I of the tournament, with Team GB being drawn in the so-called 'Group of Death' alongside Switzerland and Denmark.
