Tennis star, Andy Murray has expressed his readiness to play once again for Great Britain in the Davis Cup after missing out in last year’s edition

The three-time Grand Slam champion, who played a key role in ending Great Britain’s 79-year wait for a 10th Davis Cup in 2015, chose to miss the 2021 event to focus on rest.

At the time he said he was “not sure he deserves to play” in Leon Smith’s team when other British players were enjoying fine form.

Murray is in the five-man team alongside Cameron Norrie, Dan Evans, Joe Salisbury and Neal Skupski for Great Britain’s three group-stage matches in Glasgow this week.

“I regretted not being involved last year,” Murray, 35, told a news conference before Great Britain open their campaign against the United States on Wednesday.

“I was tired and I wasn’t sure if it was something I necessarily still wanted to be involved with because all of these guys deserve to compete in the team and whether it was necessary for me to be there.

“As soon as I turned the matches on [last year] to start watching I was like ‘What am I doing? Like, it’s a mistake’. I wanted to be there and be there for the team and try and help.

Murray, whose career was nearly ended when he needed a hip resurfacing operation in 2019, says he does not necessarily expect to play although is feeling physically “really good”.
