Don't know about favourite - 50/50 is probably more correct in betting terms -there will be two great players out there.

I have had a feeling that this would be Murray's year since the start - hence this thread. I haven't polished up my crystal ball and had a peek since then -wouldn't like to spoil the match knowing the result beforehand -am superstitious too!

I was wondering though -given that it's a Jubilee year and the first British man in 74 years is in a Wimbledon final -whether Her Maj might be popping along to sit in the Royal box on sunday afternoon. It probably wouldn't matter to Murray either way - doubt he's a royalist.

She was there for the Silver jubilee win of "Ginny" Wade though-last "so-called" British ladies final winner.

Would be nice if Wills and Kate could take Granny along...
