Harlequins produced a strong second half performance to see off Worcester 36-14 and continue their impressive home form.It was a fifth home win in succession for Quins - a stark contrast to their poor away form which has seen them lose all four matches on the road.It was 7-7 at half-time with Worcester making too many basic errors to reward their first half superiority before the second half saw Quins step up a gear to collect a bonus point win.Joe Marchant, Danny Care, Mike Brown, Tim Visser and James Horwill scored their tries with Nick Evans kicking a penalty and three conversions. Tim Swiel added another conversion.An impressive Ben Teo spearheaded Worcesters performance and, along with his fellow centre Jackson Willison, they scored Warriors tries with Jamie Shillcock adding two conversions. Worcester dominated the opening minutes but it was the hosts, who took the lead against the run of play.From a position in the home 22, Visser intercepted a Dean Hammond pass to race away. The wing was chased down by Shillcock but Care was up in support to take Vissers pass to score. Evans converted before Shillcock had a chance to put his side on the scoreboard but his straight forward penalty attempt went wide.However Warriors soon overcame the miss to draw level after 10 minutes when from a line-out in the opposition 22, Teo brushed aside a poor tackle from Luke Wallace to create a try for Willison.After the exciting opening period, the game became error-ridden and disjointed but when Joe Marler was sin-binned for collapsing a maul, the visitors had their chance to capitalise.Ryan Lamb kicked the penalty to the corner to secure a five metre line-out but Warriors gave away their first penalty of the game by a careless off-side to allow Quins to relieve the pressure. In Marlers absence, Worcester never threatened the home sides try-line and the score remained 7-7 at the interval.Warriors were made to pay when Quins produced their best movement of the match to score their second try within five minutes of the restart. Strong runs from James Chisholm and Winston Stanley put the visitors defence on the back foot before Cares pass sent Horwill crashing over.Four minutes later, Quins scored their third try when Brown skipped past a couple of defenders for an excellent solo try with Evans converting to leave Warriors with a mountain to climb.To their credit, they responded immediately when a well-judged pass from Ryan Lamb created a gap for Willison, who raced through it to create a try for Teo.Worcester had another chance when on half-way, a Stanley pass was picked off by Phil Dowson but the veteran number 8 lacked the pace to make it to the line.With 17 minutes remaining, Warriors collapsed a driving maul and Evans stepped up to kick the first successful penalty of the game before, from the restart, Marchant intercepted a Lamb pass to run 70 metres to score.That try sealed the game for Quins, who introduced Mark Lambert for the prop to record his 200th game for the club before Visser crashed over to finish off the final movement of the match.

LONDON -- Cities will bid to stage the finals of the Davis and Fed Cups as part of a revamp of the international team tennis competitions.The International Tennis Federation will launch a bidding process in December, although the governing body is yet to determine whether the same city will host the mens and womens competitions.Currently one of the finalists, based on the draw, decides the venue. Croatia is now looking for a suitable location for its men to host Argentina in the Davis Cup final in November.By having a full year or two to plan we can do more for sponsors and fans with a stadium thats an appropriate size, ITF President David Haggerty said the organizations London headquarters.Working on the ITF project are consultants from the CSM sports marketing company chaired by Sebastian Coe, president of track and fields governing body, the IAAF.The ITF will assess whether to select a host city from an emerging market which can potentially offer higher financial returns or one of the traditional tennis heartlands where the crowds could be larger and more boisterous.Its a balancing act, making sure we get bids from a number of different cities so we can make comparisons,, Haggerty told The Associated Press.dddddddddddd But its not all about money. Its about eyeballs and awareness. Our mission really is to develop, grow and promote tennis around the world. So we will take great caution.Haggerty envisages the winning bid staging the finals for two to three years. The challenge in potentially using the same venue for both competition finals at the same time is finding somewhere with enough arenas, practice courts and locker rooms.European soccers Champions League final and the Super Bowl, the showpiece of the NFL season, are being examined as major events that are held at neutral venues.The proposed Davis and Fed Cup changes must be approved by the ITFs annual general meeting in August. The ITF anticipates a decision on successful bidding cities next year.The ITF is also examining whether to condense the finals from three to two days and if best-of-three sets would work better for the Davis Cup rather than the current best-of-five. The Fed Cup world group could also double to 16 teams to match the mens competition. ' ' '
