Murray favourite in third round of Wimbledon

British tennis player Andy Murray is a heavy favourite to beat his opponent Viktor Troicki in the third round of Wimbledon after a dominant display against Ernests Gulbis. Murray dispatched the Latvian in straight sets 6-2, 7-5, 6-3 and only committed five unforced errors throughout the second-round match. Commenting on his performance the Scotsman said: "I was very happy with the way I played. If I serve like that for the rest of the tournament I'll have a good chance."Being able to relax from the "nerves and tensions" of the first round was an important factor in his improved performance, he added. The world number three is the UK's only remaining player in the tournament, but goes into the third round as a 1/25 favourite to beat his opponent with Betfair (Go to Betfair »).
