Djokovic leads the career head-to-head with Murray 8-6, but the pair has split their four meetings this year. Most recently Murray beat Djokovic at the London Olympics.

RYAN HARRISON: Well, I think I have the advantage of being a practice partner a couple years ago, also being a part of that fantastic tie we had in Switzerland. Like Jim said, I played the dead rubber match for me to get out there. We discussed a lot of that stuff in the past. Obviously we talked about it, just like we talked about many other things for this match. I think we’re both on the same page. We both have a very clear mindset of what has to be done in order to get the job done. We’re going to try to go out and execute tomorrow.

Roger Federer blames Wawrinka for Switzerland’s Davis Cup debacle.

The winning American team met the press after their stunning upset over the favored Swiss Saturday in Fribourg.

“Last year I didn’t have many chances to win,” Kvitova said. “Serena played so well. I was young and didn’t think I could beat her. I don’t know what was different, because today I felt I could win.”

The New Haven tennis event has a lot of offer, not just tennis.

The Bryan twins set the mark for most career team titles yesterday in LA.

“There are a lot of opportunities out there to get that 62, but it would be more special at a Grand Slam,” said Bob Bryan after the duo contested their 99th career final. “We’re just really happy to win this one right now against such a great team; one of our rivals of the past three years. It feels awesome to share a record with the Woodies; those guys were our idols. We were lucky to grow up when they were at their best and we learned a lot from them; they played a beautiful game of doubles. To be mentioned in the same sentence as those guys is everything to us. It’s what makes number 61 so special.”

Despite the controversies and suggestions about changing Davis Cup, I’ve always enjoyed the unique features Davis Cup brings to tennis.

“I would put it in the same league as a Grand Slam because the best eight players in the world are participating here,” Djokovic said. “I feel very happy. End up the season the way I started it, with a win in a big event. So it’s a great boost up for upcoming season.”
