Andy Murray says he's unfazed by the prospect of making history in today's Australian Open final.
Murray could end Britain's 75 year wait for a male Grand Slam champion but the fifth seed insisted that he's putting those thoughts to the back of his mind.
"It's more of a personal goal and personal dream of mine," said Murray. "So that's what you need to keep in check and not get ahead of yourself. The historical thing, it's not something I have thought about that much but it's something that for me personally I want to try to win. I don't want to get myself so amped up that I play a stinker of a match."
"I am going to make the most of the opportunity and give 110% but I also need to make sure I am relaxed and calm on the court. I don't want to get myself too worked up."
There will be few surprises between Murray and Novak Djokovic on court. The players have known each other for over a decade having competed for the big titles as juniors then breaking on to the professional circuit at a similar time.
Djokovic was the first to make a serious impact in the men's game, reaching the US Open final back in 2007 and then winning his first Grand Slam in Australia a few months later. Murray initially struggled to keep pace but he's made his mark in the past few seasons and has beaten Djokovic in their last three matches.
"I think when we both came on the tour, because we weren't necessarily competing for the biggest tournaments we got on well, then he started to improve a lot and I was trying to catch up," Murray said.
