    Jamaican tennis star Dustin Brown has said that he is excited about facing World No. 4 Andy Murray in their second-round US Open clash tonight.

    Brown became the first Jamaican to win a Grand Slam match since 1974 this week.

    "I know a lot of Jamaicans living in New York and they're all coming to watch," The Sun quoted Brown, as saying.

    "This will be the biggest crowd I've ever played in front of and I'm going to play my type of tennis - aggressive to keep the rallies short."

    "People say I'm not capable of playing a boring point. It's going to be tough, but yeah, I'm going to enjoy it," he added.

    The 25-year-old World No.123 has also offered to play Davis Cup for Great Britain despite being born in Germany.

    "I spoke to the LTA and they said they were going to get in contact with me. I'm still waiting, but I still feel very Jamaican," Brown said. (ANI)
