Federer only has to beat one top player to win. Murray at 11/4 is a bad price. He may have won everything this year, but a grand slam is a different proposition.

So what your saying is, Murray will have to pay someone a backhander to stand any chance of winning. :D

I think he's becoming the real deal but he has to win a major soon, otherwise he'll become another nearly man, he'll always be better than 'Jim' Henman though.

Bookmakers price up tournaments to coincide with the money they expect to take which is not always the same as their true odds. In football England always seem to be about 8/1 to 10/1 to win the World Cup. In reality they would be more like 20/1.


I would go

7/4 Federer
5/2 Nadal
6/1 Murray
7/1 Djokovic

I fear he is, which disappoints me as I have always disliked him for his anti English comments during the world cup.
