Re: US Open 2012 Here are my thoughts on the final tennis major of 2012: 3/10pts A. Murray to win US Open - 9/2 with ToteSport I think Andy Murray comes here in fantastic shape and can claim his first major of an already very good career. I think that the victory in the Olympics will be a massive boost to his confidence and for him to do that after the disappointment of losing the Wimbledon final just weeks previously shows great mental strength. For me, this is his best surface so there is every reason to suggest he could perform even better than at those 2 tournaments. He has a decent draw with Bogomolov Jr. first up and with Tsonga and Raonic also in his quarter of the draw. He has better all round games than those 2 players and returns well enough to cope with both of their big serves. He will probably face Federer in the semi-finals if he gets there and, although the world number 1 is in great form, Murray has proven time and time again that he can beat him. He triumphed over him to win gold at the Olympics to banish some of the pain of that Wimbledon final loss. If he beats Federer he may come up against Djokovic but Murray has also beaten him a fair amount of times. I don't think Djokovic is playing as well as he could be, either. This will probably come down to those 3 names and I think Murray has a better chance than this price suggests.
