The match has stirred up social media interest with former Giffnock players and GB team mates Jamie Murray and Colin Fleming joining in the twitter sensation.

Jamie said: “Fair play to both guys for putting their reputations on the line like this. It should be a really close match.”

It all kicks off at Giffnock Tennis Squash & Hockey Club at 2pm this Saturday.

A spokesperson said: “The club extends a very warm welcome to anyone who would like to watch.”
