Murray through to Australian Open final

January 28th, 2010 by Lee Taylor

Andy Murray has beaten Marin Cilic by three sets to one to reach the second Grand Slam final of his career. He will face either Roger Federer or Jo-Wilfried Tsonga in Sunday’s final.

This year’s Australian Open has been a great start to 2010 for the Scot. He has turned around the negative play that hit his 2009 grand slam hopes and employed a much more attacking – and yet risk-free – all-round game. Though Murray started slowly against Cilic, his good form eventually came through and, in the end, he won convincingly  3-6 6-4 6-4 6-2.

Just one month into 2010, Murray is undoubtedly having a record-breaking year. He is just one win away from being the first British male to win a Grand Slam singles title in 74 years and if he continues this form, fans back home will be intrigued to see how he gets on later in the year – namely, Wimbledon 2010.

British tennis fans have watched the SW19 event down the years with hopes – however faint – of a Brit emerging victorious. Tim Henman could and should have won it but failed a whopping four times at the semi-final stage. Since Murray’s arrival on the scene, hopes have become stronger with each passing season, and 2010 is shaping up to be his finest year to date. With his fierce determination, a powerful serve and an almost unbeatable defence, Murray now has the tools to go on to claim what most consider as the biggest prize in tennis – the Wimbledon title.

The 2010 Wimbledon tennis championships are just months away and fans will be pleased to hear that Wimbledon tickets are already available to buy from tixdaq.com. The tournament starts on the 21st of June and tickets start from £357.
