I really don't think that there's any question that Murray has bottled anything. Djokovic is playing some incredible tennis and has superb athleticism. OK, so Murray has been making quite a few unforced errors which aren't helping, but that's not particularly uncommon in tennis. The fact that Djokovic has barely put a foot wrong and has dominated the game is what'll make him the Australian Open Champion today..

Glimmer of hope or just going out fighting ? Maybe he should have actually STARTED like that?

It takes two to make a final though. Djolovic hasn't put a foot wrong but Murray has seldom got anything right. When you get two finalists that don't put a foot wrong you get a final like the Nadal v Federer classic at Wimbledon. When one fails to bring anything to the party you get a walkover.

Little known fact.

Stats say whoever wins the 7th game in a set goes on to win that set.

Another little known fact.

Murray will become the first person (hopefully) to reach 3 Grand Slam finals and never win a set.

Bloody hell, if true that is choking on a Henmanesque level. The fact that he actually got to the finals is a plus though, I guess.

Yet again he reaches a final and fails to deliver. Becomming a bit repetative, bit like all the goalkeepers that have blinders at against our srtikers. Or maybe Murray(Andy that is), is just not quite good enough.
