Murray 5-4 for Australian open glory as Federer cruises through

Andy Murray is 5-4 with bookmaker Coral to win his first Major title, with his Australian Open final opponent the 8-13 favourite.

Looking ahead, the British number one is 10-3 to win Wimbledon, and 3-1 to be world number one by the end of 2010.

"Roger Federer brushed Jo-Wilfried Tsonga aside to set up the showdown with Andy Murray, and as a result the Swiss star is a worthy favourite to win another Grand slam event," said Coral's David Stevens.

"If Murray had made it to a Wimbldeon final we would be facing a hammering from patriotic punters now, but on this occasion Federer is a bigger loser for us. However we're still expecting plenty of support for Murray ahead of the final, with many hoping the long wait for British success is almost over," added Stevens.
