Andy Murray was in fine form after winning his Davis Cup singles match on Sunday - and rightly so, considering that his victory over John Isner gave Britain overall victory and set up a quarter-final match against France in July.
After the celebrations in front of the crowd, Murray and his Great Britain team-mates joined Annabel Croft and the British Eurosport team for an interview - and when talk turned to the celebrations planned for this evening, Murray accidentally dropped his team-mate in it.
The clip above really is unmissable - and Murray's reaction is absolutely hilarious...
Inglot later tweeted that Murray's remark was "all banter" clarifying that "there is not girl on the side".
We're inclined to take him at face value here - after all, would someone with a guilty secret really come clean live on TV?
Either way, this moment of unscripted guard-dropping shows Murray in a surprising and positive light - behind the normally serious demeanour, we see a man of mischief, humour and camaraderie. Just a shame about the colossal faux pas.
Let's hope it's all straightened out by the time Britain play their next Davis Cup match, against France in July...
