Will Murray Finally Break His Grand Slam Duck?
United States tennis championship is called the US Open. There are four grand slam tennis events that takes place every year and US Open is one of them. US Open is taken place in Queens at Flushing Meadows Corona Park in New York City. This year there has been lots of promotional merchandise prepared of the big playes such as Andy Roddick, Rafael Nadal, Roger Federer and Andy Murray. Well not surprising to be honest as they are the favourites to win it.
Though having said that Roddick has been knocked out of this year’s US Open in the first round by Serb Janko Tipsarevic. His loss is a big surprise after his fantastic season so far. He worked hard on his fitness so he was looking pretty good. Many say Roger Federer has passed his time and can’t win another grand slam after Wimbledon and French Open but they don’t realise that he did win the Australian Open, the guy is a genius don’t ever count him out. No one will count Rafael Nadal out that’s for sure; the guy is a fighter and keeps fighting till the last moment. As Nadal has never won an US Open title he must be eager to do so sooner than later. Nadal recently took Roger Federer spot as World number one.
Andy Murray is looking for his first grand slam win of his career and many believe US Open is his best chance. In the warm up events to US Open Andy Murray beat the top two players in the World (Federer and Nadal) to take the title in Toronto. So he has shown that he has what it takes to beat the top two but hasn’t done it on the big stage. In his career he has reached two grand slam finals one at US Open and another at Australian and both times he lost to Federer. So he must be gunning to improve those finals stats.
For Murray supporters you can purchase his team’s corporate clothing, branded pens and UK flags just out the Flushing Meadows.
