Having made short work of the Fed today to reach the final of the Qatar Open, Murray has now been installed as favourite to win the Australian Open.

The way he is playing at the moment, who would bet against him? Very Happy

Murray beat Roddick in the final of the Qatar event.

He is unbeaten in 2009. Let's hope it stays that way in the next event Very Happy

Murray faces Andrei Pavel in the first round next week.

Pavel hasn't played much since 2007 so it should be easy work for Murray. Then again - famous last words!!

Murray got put out by a guy called Ferdasco and he ran Nadal really close today in a match lasting over 5 hours. But ultimately it is a Nadal - Federer final.

Should be ace Laughing
