PT KONTAK PERKASA FUTURES - Andy Murray will miss Great Britain's Davis Cup quarter-final tie against France next month.
An elbow injury forced Murray to sit out the ongoing Miami Open, and the problem will deprive GB of their world No 1 in Rouen between April 7-9. PT KONTAK PERKASA FUTURES - Dan Evans, Kyle Edmund, Jamie Murray and Dom Inglot will instead bear the responsibility of taking on the French on the indoor clay of the Kindarena. The quartet secured a first-round victory over Canada, but France's line-up includes two players in the top 25 singles ranking and also one of the game's most formidable doubles' pairs in Nicolas Mahut and Pierre-Hugues Herbert. Team captain Leon Smith said: "This is a team with significant Davis Cup experience now and these guys have all stepped up and delivered performances at the very top of the competition. "Not having Andy in the side is obviously a big loss to our team but most importantly we all wish him well for a speedy recovery back to full health and fitness. I know that he would really want to be here with the rest of the team. "Facing France in a Davis Cup tie is a tough test for any group of players and this Rouen quarter-final will be no exception. They have the strongest depth of squad by far out of any nation in the competition." But Smith said: "Dan's serve is good on any surface, his forehand can be a weapon, he obviously moves great so I don't see why he can't play well on it." France are missing big names of their own with Gael Monfils and Richard Gasquet injured new father Jo-Wilfried Tsonga also absent. Mahut and Herbert are joined in the side by Lucas Pouille and Gilles Simon, ranked 15 and 25. Source : skysports.com
