Murray has all the skills needed to secure his first Grand Slam but whether he has the temperament or not is another matter. I fully expect him to join the long list of heroic British tennis failures such as Tim Henman and Buster Mottram who fell to pieces under pressure - although I sincerely hope to be proven wrong.

Andy Murray is No3 in the world and is certainly capable – physically and mentally – of winning Wimbledon. If he can continue the winning form he showed at Queen’s last weekend and take some of that confidence with him to Wimbledon then he stands every chance. He is in far better physical condition than he was three years ago, so this could well turn out to be his year. Here's hoping!

The only person who could prevent Andy Murray from winning Wimbledon is Andy Murray himself.
Nothing is ever certain in sport. If the result of any competition was a dead cert it would not be worth watching. The weight of expectation on Andy's shoulders might just bring the lad to his knees, but on the other hand it might inspire him. We'll soon find out.

Of course he can win Wimbledon. So can a few others who will not have to suffer the media hype building up hysterical expectations.

If he does win it will not be because of any perceived home advantage but rather in spite of it.
