Considering they were confiscating Ribenas due to a fear of advertising last week I doubt it would get through security.

All this talk of Murray in 3 and looking ahead to potential ranking implications of winning the final is making me nervous!  While Murray is rightly the favourite to win tomorrow, I don't think it is as clear cut as the poll or the comments on this thread suggest.  Roddick has won a grand slam, been in 3 other grand slam finals and 5 grand slams semi finals, including this year's Australian Open and won a total of 27 ATP titles (albeit that the last few years have not been his best).

His form this year, however, has been a lot more impressive than has been the case over the last few years - semi finalist in Melbourne, 4th round at Roland Garros, won Memphis, runner up at Doha and semi-finalist at Indian Wells.  He has arguably the best serve in the men's game, a very dangerous forehand and his backhand - normally his weakness - is firing a lot better than expected.

I think tomorrow's match will be a real battle and Murray will have to be at his very best throughout to get through it.  This is definitely a real danger match and one where Andy will need to be totally focused and not lose his concentration to ensure he comes through.

Don't get me wrong - I believe and hope he can do it.  I just think we should take a leaf out of his book and take it one game at a time.

Here's hoping we're all salivating about Murray playing in his second grand slam final in about 18 hours time!!

The first set will be tight, Roddick will be fresh plus Murray likes to have a look before he dismantles you, maybe a TB which will be Roddicks only chance of picking up a set but i dont even see that happening.... Murray will get better as the match progresses, i think Murray will take it and cruise to a 6/4 6/3 strait sets victory. Perfect prep for the final! Im too excited, like a fat kid with a cupcake lol! CMON MUZZA!!!!

I see that Stefanki has said Roddick will be less aggressive than usual today, as his aggressive play saw him pasted in Doha. Surely that is playing into Murray's hands even more - he can't take Murray on in long rallies and expect to win outright!
Is Stefanki being serious or is it just mind games to upset our man's preparation? Not that I think he'd be overly affected by it! Think
