Wimbledon doubles champion Jonny Marray is targeting a Davis Cup debut in 2013.The established pairing of Colin Fleming and Ross Hutchins have played - and won - the doubles rubber in GB's last three ties, so Marray knows he faces a tough battle to win a place in the line-up.
"Davis Cup
is definitely something I want to be involved in," he said.
is definitely something I want to be involved in," he said.
"But Colin and Ross are an incredibly strong set-up and had a great year. They just missed out on the (ATP World Tour Finals at the) O2, so it's going to be tough to break into that. They are an established team together. "But it's something that's a goal of mine - to be involved in that and play for my country."
GB's next tie will be at home to Russia in April and Marray will get the chance to impress Davis Cup captain Leon Smith at the LTA's new winter training base at La Manga in Spain this week.
The British star sprang to prominence with his stunning victory alongside Dane Freddie Nielsen back in the summer but despite having a Grand Slam title on his CV has yet to represent his country in the team competition.
