So Murray and Federer will face each other off this sunday... I think we can guess who will win!
Any of our Ozzie members been watching or following the Open?

It'll be interesting certainly. Much as Federer is the statistically the greatest player in history, Murray tops the head to head between them with 6 wins to Federer's 4. Seems the experts are tipping Murray should it go past 4 sets too.

Good luck Andy Murray. :)

Thankfully in the UK our TV coverage of sport is slightly better than what I've heard it can be like in Australia (ie, unless Australia's involved, very sketchy! ;D). So at 8am the TV went on...

...shame about the result. A good match, but as Murray found, you have to take your breaks when you get them. Shame the result looks slightly one sided, as to be fair, as the 3rd set tie break showed, it was a close encounter. :)

Most certainly, about 4 set points and 3 Championship points.
Hats off to both of them.  ;) I'm sure Murray's time will come.  :)

A fairly one-sided match for Fed, but the 3rd set tiebreak was really fun to watch!
