Davis Cup: Murray lifts Britain again

Andy Murray
World
number three Andy Murray steered Britain back among the Davis Cup elite
with a straight sets victory over Croatia’s Ivan Dodig in Umag on
Sunday.
Murray, who turned out for his country
for the first time in two years, capped a fine weekend with a 6-4 6-2
6-4 victory to give Britain a 3-1 lead and put them in next week’s draw
for the World Group after a five-year absence.
The Wimbledon champion, who beat
16-year-old Borna Coric on Friday and then teamed up with Colin Fleming
to win Saturday’s doubles, was far too strong for a weary Dodig who hung
on grimly at the end, saving two match points before succumbing.
“I’m looking forward to playing against
some of the biggest countries in the world it will be exciting and
hopefully I can be part of it,” Murray told Eurosport.
