Davis Cup: Andy Murray Frozen quote

Andy Murray kicked off proceedings by slotting the most famous tagline ‘Let it Go’ into his first answer (about the tournament’s facilities). It amused the top-ranked Briton Dan Evans. Kyle Edmund too was not far behind saying ‘fear will be (y)our enemy’. Dan Evans and doubles player Neal Skupski chipped in with ‘can’t hold it back anymore’ and ‘be the player – which is replaced by “good girl” in the main title song – you always have to be’.

Jamie Murray let the side down, failing to slip his assigned quotes in. He was supposed to say, ‘the cold never bothered me anyway’. Admittedly, it was a tricky one to slot in.
