Andy Murray overwhelmed with emotion as he led Great Britain to their first Davis Cup Semi-final in 34 years.
Mmurray came from a set down to beat France's Gilles Simon, giving Britain an unassailable 3-1 lead in the best-of-five tie at Queen's Club.
The world number three looked exhausted when he trailed Simon by a set and a break, but he recovered to win 4-6 7-6 (7/5) 6-3 6-0

We're punching above our weight here. We're in the semi-finals now of the biggest competition in tennis. | It's been a long road back from where we were a few years ago but there are many players who have played their part in getting us here. | I'm just proud to get here and hopefully we can do well against Australia in September. | – ANDY MURRAY | Britain v Australia and Belgium v Argentina will be played in September. |
