BELGRADE, Serbia (AP) - Serbia will host defending champion Britain on outdoor clay in central Belgrade in the Davis Cup quarterfinals.
The matches at the renovated 6,100-seat Tasmajdan Stadium on July 15-17 could see top-ranked Novak Djokovic face No. 2 Andy Murray.
Murray and Djokovic are friends and both featured as teenagers in the only previous matchup in 2006 in Glasgow, with Djokovic winning both of his singles matches in a 3-2 Serbia win.
Serbia won the title in 2010. Britain beat Belgium on clay in November for its first title in 79 years.
