Do you think Murray will win the Aussie? If not, then what round will he go out in?
Andy Murray has not yet experience top level success down under. Despite that you can find him priced as the third favorite with Boylesports at +550 (11/2) to win the Australian Open.
While picking Murray to win the Australian seems too risky of a bet to make, William Hill are offering a nice proposition on Murray that allows you to pick his exit round.
Here are the options and the odds for each round:
Round 1, +1400 (14/1)
Round 2, +1000 (10/1)
Round 3, +550 (11/2)
Round 4, +450 (9/2)
Quarterfinal, +350 (7/2)
Semifinal, +350 (7/2)
Runner-up, +450 (9/2)
Winner, +450 (9/2)
This year will be Murray's 5th showing in Melbourne and he has yet to make it past the 4th round there. In 2006 and 2008, Murray exited in the 1st round while in 2007 and 2009, Murray made the 4th.
Expect Murray to improve on his past results this year but do not expect him to take this Slam down.
Our recommendation is to take Murray as a quarterfinalist at +350 (7/2).
