Great Britain Davis Cup captain Leon Smith is raring to go after it was confirmed their quarter-final against hosts Serbia will be played on clay.
Smith's team opened up their Davis Cup defence with a 3-1 victory over Japan in Birmingham last month and now turn their attentions to Serbia.
And Serbia – who won the Davis Cup in 2010 and beat a GB side containing Andy Murray the last time they met in 2006 – have opted to play the July 15-17 tie at outdoor Tasmajdan Stadium on clay.
Smith said: "Now we know the surface and venue our preparations for the Serbia tie can go to the next level.
"It is going to be an exciting contest in Belgrade and we can't wait to get back together as a team and continue our defence of the title."
