    I've been watching the tournament in Doha all week and from what I've seen I expect Murray to beat Roddick 2-0 in the final today.

    I'm not much of a gambler though, so don't rush down to the bookies! It's been a great tournament. Murray has looked very competent and asssured. Roddick has done well, but things fell nicely for him. Federer was sometimes great and sometimes frustrating. Monfils was brilliant - I think he's now one of my favourites! Nadal was great to watch too even though he only made it to the quarter finals.

    Murray's carrying a bit of a banck injury and has said if its causing him problems he'll retire to be fit for the Oz Open.

    Not much of a gamble at all, Murray wins 6-4 6-2.

    He's been playing impressively especially the way he took apart Federer yesterday. Definitely one of the top favourites for Melbourne but if he did meet Federer I'd still see Fed as the favourite as Murray has yet to beat him in a slam.

    Murray is playing excellent tennis, I really like his game, you can't beat watching lobs in tennis and he loves playing them. He also has a cracking serve that he slams down from left to right with pretty much no spin on it. There's something about him that gets on my nerves sometimes though, I think it's the way he reacts to things. I also think the Eurosport commentators going on about how much of a superstar he is doesn't help!
