LONDON — Andy Murray has done a diligent job updating the dusty British tennis history books and if all goes to plan another chapter will be written in the Belgium city of Ghent next week.
The 28-year-old Scot has almost single-handedly taken Britain to the Davis Cup final for the first time since 1978 and providing he does not suffer any mishaps they should win the team event for the first time since 1936.
That year, together with the name Fred Perry, have been entwined with Murray's career since it became clear he was the real deal, not just another British also-ran.
