Tennis - British tennis player Ross Hutchins continues his successful comeback from cancer as he was named as a reserve in the British Davis Cup team that takes on Italy next weekend.
Hutchins commented in an interview with http://ift.tt/1nI5ZI3, 'To be called up is very exciting. The team is announced next week so I might yet force my way in, but if not, I am happy with any role be it supporter, training partner or playing. The Davis Cup is a huge priority for the top players and the standards are extremely high. Italy will be a hugely tough match as they have some excellent players, and it is being held in Naples. But we had a great win in America to get to this stage, so we are up for this. We have bonded as a team and we have top, top players.'
Other players in the team are Andy Murray, Daniel Evans, James Ward and Colin Fleming.
Hutchins also commented that he has applied for a wildcard for Wimbledon. 'I can't wait for Wimbledon, it's such a great tournament and I'm hoping for good times on and off the court. I have already applied for a wildcard, but I should get my place through protected ranking.'
