Verdasco beat Murray 4 years ago 6-1 6-3 in Spain but that was righted when Murray beat him in straights in this years Aussie Open.

Dont know if Andy has any hang-ups playing lefties but Im sure that wont change the result which should be a 2 set win for Murray.

This is Andy's 4th final of the year (San Jose, Metz, Doha, St Petersburg) and Verdasco its his first and he still has to win his maiden title. It wont be tomorrow Im sure.

Quoted on Reuters (Verdasco)

Looking ahead to the final, he said: "He (Murray) beat me the only time we played on the (ATP) tour but I beat him once in a challenger event, so you could say we are even 1-1. I think I have a good chance tomorrow, so if I lose I'll be mad for sure."

Yeah right Fernando beating a spotty faced 16 year old in a Spanish Challenger 4 years ago is akin to a second round match in a Grand Slam...okay then son you belive your own hype...I reckon, on points, Andy leads the H2H is 35 to 2 !!!

Reuters : Murray Reaction...

"The matchpoint was huge," said Murray, who will face Fernando Verdasco in Sunday's final after the Spanish sixth seed overwhelmed Croatian qualifier Marin Cilic 6-2 6-3 in the second semi-final.

"When I hit my shot I thought I had lost it because I thought the ball was going out, Youzhny probably thought the same thing too. Then, he started to get nervous and made quite a lot of mistakes in the end," the world number 16 told reporters.

On set point, Youzhny's shot was clearly out but was ruled in. Murray was outraged by the decision but could do little to change the outcome as he had already used both his Hawk-Eye challenges in that set.

"He hit the ball off the net and it was going unbelievably slow and when the ball bounced I knew it was out so I didn't try to hit it back," Murray said.

"But I had no chances left to challenge the call so there was nothing I could do. It was just a bad call."

Streaming worked well from their site yesterday but no sound.  I was using Vista 64 (out of the box).  Does sound normally come through OK ??

And ' Good Luck Andy !'
