Favourite Out Of Australian Open

There will probably be a wry smile on the faces of one or two players after Andy Murray was knocked out of the Australian Open. Murray made a blistering start to the season but the fact he was made the favourite did not go down particularly well with the other top players such as Federer and Djokovic.

The early part of the tennis season can be somewhat misleading because there are players who take a while to get going. That is taking nothing away from Murray who was undoubtedly the outstanding performer for the first couple of weeks. Installing him as favourite was perhaps a little generous considering he has yet to win a grand slam tournament.

Strangely there have not been many upsets in this event. Of the remaining competitors, there are some interesting clashes in prospect at the quarterfinal stage. All things being equal the tournament is now looks set to be won by one of Federer, Nadal or defending champion Djokovic.
