Great Britain's Colin Fleming prepares for "huge" Davis Cup tie

Colin Fleming believes that the future is bright for Great Britain's Davis Cup team.

Colin Fleming believes that Great Britain's upcoming Davis Cup tie against Hungary will be one of the "biggest" matches he has been involved in.

The Scot will compete alongside doubles partner Ross Hutchins at the Braehead Arena this weekend, with the winning nation earning promotion to to Europe/Africa Group I.

"It's a huge match, it's possibly the biggest Davis Cup tie I've played in," Fleming told BBC Scotland.

"I've played in, I think, four before, but we're playing for promotion back into Group I."

The 27-year-old also believes that the return of Andy Murray to the fold could spark a vast improvement from the team.

"There's a real excitement about the team at the moment," explained Fleming.

"With Andy being back in the set-up and keen to play ties it gives us a chance to go further than just getting promoted.

"He will go into a tie probably being favourite to win two rubbers, apart from maybe against Serbia or Spain, but even then he has the potential to win two matches."

Fleming and Hutchins reached the semi-finals at Wimbledon and the US Open this year.
