Briton Eaton backed for Davis Cup role when Austria arrive at Wimbledon

The 20-year-old came through six qualifying rounds and beat Boris Pashanski in the main draw before losing to No25 seed Dmitry Tursunov at SW19 last week.

And Lundgren, who was once Great Britain's Davis Cup coach, claims Eaton should not be ruled out of another appearance at the All England Club when Austria visit for the World Group play-off.

High hopes: Eaton could be back at SW19 in a few months

If he carries on playing well, then it would be good if he was in the team,' said Lundgren, who quit the LTA in April for personal reasons. 'But it will be tough.'

Eaton, ranked just No661 in the world, is expected to rise more than 200 places when the new list of rankings is announced next week and Lundgren added: 'He plays offensively with serve and volley and I like that kind of tennis.'
