    Murray now the favorite to win the AO
    Market correction or overreaction?

    Federer was favorite to start and Murray has beaten Nadal (an injured Nadal) and the rest much lesser quality opponents.

      Had both in futures. Fed at +300 and Murray at +600. Both were steals in my opinion at the price, especially Federer regardless of everyone's love fest with Davydenko.

          I have cilic at 45-1 to win...Thinking of playing murray at +150 to win it,then if I lose I would at worst have to lay -400 on either fed/davy/tsonga/djoker.Still make a profit.
          Im no math major,so other advice welcomed..

            To answer the original question, no.

            Murray has a walkover match and is then straight into the final.

            Fed on the other hand has to play Davy who beat him the last 2 times they met and the winner of Joker/Tsonga.

              beefcake - you are in the catbird's seat..I am jealous.

              Gonzo is correct about the adjustment in favor of Murray.

                Not until Federer gets beat. Federer is playing great and painting his shots as well as ever.

                  Does anyone here follow tennis at all? A murray walkover? Sure I believe murray will win this encounter, but the only value is in a cilic play. Cilic rolled over murray a few months ago at the last major if anyone recalls.

                            murray is in good shape and playing better than ever, so is cilic but murray's game is a level higher

                            also murray should be fresher since he cruised in most of his games, cilic played some tough and long matches and may be fatigued

                            if murray gets a few early breaks then he should win easier than people expect IMO

                                Not surprisingly, Federer now favored again.

                                      I don't feel that way: (Murray being the the favorite by any means). No disrespect as I like Andy very much, Federer is correctly, rightly the odds on favorite and deservedly so, IMO. Roger is still Federer; and the greatest to ever play the game most likely. That is debatable of course: Top 5 most assuredly, but WOW, he is great for an average looking slinky, non big muscular impressive type looking tennis athlete. Federer appears like such an average fella for what he can do and has done do on this platform. Federer paints the lines like no other and is just a pleasure to watch, but he has had and capable of bad days, so........

                                        Without upset(s) of epic proportions, you are in the money, Sir.

                                        Nice grabs.
