'Let it go': Davis Cup team takes on hilarious Frozen challenge

Britain's Davis Cup stars have left viewers at their press conference in stitches after dropping a series of bizarre references from Disney film, Frozen.

The governing body of tennis in Britain, the LTA (Lawn Tennis Association) let fans in on the joke after posting video of the press conference on social media.

'WE CAN WIN IT’: Aussies buzzing after electric Davis Cup start

The LTA revealed in the post that Britain's players were following through on a dare to drop as many references from the cult Disney classic as they could.

Dan Evans did his best not to laugh as two-time Olympic champion Andy Murray told critics of the new-look Davis Cup format to "let it go".

British number one Evans then said: “We have both had a good week's practice, can't hold it back anymore, and get it going on the match court.”

Kyle Edmund urged caution when he revealed “fear will be our enemy," while new boy Neal Skupski said: “if we do get called upon, we'll just have to be the player we always have to be.”

The older of the Murray brothers, Jamie, was apparently meant to chime in with a reference to the cold never bothering him anyway, but sadly failed to deliver.

‘People have been fairly negative’

The inaugural Finals of the 119-year-old tournament started on Monday in Madrid, where 18 teams will now compete across the week at the Caja Magica for the chance to play in Sunday's final.

Barcelona footballer Gerard Pique has been at the heart of the changes after his marketing company Kosmos struck a $3billion deal over 25 years with the International Tennis Federation.

"I think generally people have been fairly negative about the new concepts," Andy Murray told reporters.

"I just feel in tennis sometimes we are quite reluctant to make changes and this is a big change. I feel like we should give it an opportunity to see how it goes."

Participation from the game's top players had dwindled as the previous system required winning teams to play four weekends across the year.

Organisers hope the prestigious trophy can be revitalised in a more congested format, with Murray, Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal all in attendance this week.

"They've done a really good job with the facilities," said Murray.

"The team room is really good, the food and the transport has been good. There's nothing really to complain about so far.

"It feels like there's a few people that want to bash the event before it's started. I think they have to let that go and wait for the event to finish before we give a fair view on what this event is now."

Britain open up against the Netherlands in Group E before playing Kazakhstan for a place in the quarter-finals.
