Andy Murray believes it is time for the other British players in the draw at this week's Aegon Championships to start making a name for themselves.
The world No 2 is fit again after missing the French Open with a back injury and is looking to repeat his victories at London's Queen's Club in 2009 and 2011.
Davis Cup hero Dan Evans, Ed Corrie and youngster Kyle Edmund have all been given wildcards into the main draw.
"Dan needs to go out there and give 110%," said Murray, who is the top seed this week. "When he's done that he's played some very good tennis and had some good wins. He's also been preparing on the grass for a while, I think he played in Nottingham last week [reaching the quarter-finals], so he'll have more matches than most of the guys."
Murray has singled out Edmund as the pick of the British juniors, believing the 17-year-old has real talent.
"Kyle's played well at some of the seniors futures events, he's won a couple, and he's ranked at about 400 in the world so it'll be a good test for him to see where he's at," Murray said.
"He was in the final of the French Open junior doubles [yesterday, which he won with Portugal's Frederico Ferreira] so he's not going to have much time to get used to the grass but it'll be a great experience for him."
Queen's is where Murray first shot to fame in 2005 when he took a set off former Grand Slam champion Thomas Johansson on his way to the last 16.
The 26-year-old has a bye in the first round this week, but then could play Nicolas Mahut of France in his first match, the man he lost to at the same stage last year, so he won't be taking anything for granted, and he said the other Britons should also relish their opportunities.
"They all need to try to enjoy it and make the most of it. It's not something that happens everyday for those guys."
Since deciding to miss the French Open, Murray has been resting and building up strength in his back, but also found time to watch plenty of the action at Roland Garros.
And the Scot said Rafael Nadal, who today bids to win a record eighth Roland Garros title, is setting records that may never be matched.
"It is incredible and it's something I don't think we'll see for a very long time," he said.
"He's still got a few years left in him as well and I wouldn't put it past him to be in the final a few more times."
