Murray 'in better shape'

Tennis player Andy Murray has revealed he has improved his conditioning since losing to Rafael Nadal at last year's Wimbledon tournament. British number one Murray implied this could be due to training in the US."After Wimbledon last year, I went to train in Miami for three or four weeks and that is pretty tough weather to train in around this time of year," he said. Following his defeat on Centre Court, Murray went on to reach the finals of the 2008 US Open where he lost to former world number one Roger Federer.The Scotsman has continued to progress and won the Queen's Club Championship earlier this month, the first British player to achieve the feat since Bunny Austin in 1931. Despite being third seed for Wimbledon, Murray is actually second favourite with Expekt (Go to Expekt ») at 15/4. Skybet (Go to Skybet ») considers Roger Federer most likely to win and he is available at odds of 11/10. Last year's champion Rafael Nadal can be bought at longer odds of 4/1 with Betfred (Go to Betfred »).
