Murray doubtful for Davis Cup tie
Andy Murray has been named in Great Britain's squad for the Davis Cup
tie against Serbia & Montenegro, but says he is unlikely to be fit to play.
The Scot sprained an ankle during his defeat by Stanislas Wawrinka in
the Nasdaq 100 Open in Miami on Wednesday.
He was subsequently named alongside Greg Rusedski, Arvind Parmar and
James Auckland in Britain's squad for the Davis Cup tie in Glasgow in April.
But when asked if he might have to miss the tie, he said: "I think so."
Murray was beaten 7-5 3-6 6-4 by Wawrinka in the first round in Miami.
It would have been bad if I wasn't wearing my ankle brace

He suffered his injury when he slipped and split the brace he has worn
on his ankle since last summer.
"Half an hour after being off the court it started to hurt quite a bit," he
told BBC Radio Five Live.
"I think tomorrow morning when I wake up it will be a little bit sore. It
would have been bad if I wasn't wearing my ankle brace.
"But it might not be the worst thing if I miss it (the Davis Cup tie)
because I'll get some time off."
Murray is keen to get some rest before the gruelling clay-court season
gets under way.
"The hardest thing is being away (from home) for so long and then if I do
well I have to go straight into Davis Cup training," he said.
"If you think that out of the next 16 weeks you may have to play 15 of them,
it's not the easiest thing to have on your mind."
