Your support makes all the difference.Tim Henman is winning his fitness fight to lead Great Britain's Davis Cup promotion bid against Egypt at Wimbledon, which starts on Friday.
The world No 33 has been troubled by a groin injury after his defeat by Stefan Edberg in the US Open earlier this month, but survived his first practice session yesterday.
A Lawn Tennis Association spokesman said: "He came through without any problems and unless there is reaction he looks certain to play at the weekend."
Britain's side is completed by Greg Rusedski, Mark Petchey and the doubles specialist Neil Broad, who won the Olympic Games silver medal alongside Henman in Atlanta.
