Andy Murray is Britain’s favorite to bring home a Championship and by the way he's played the first two rounds he's looking very good. He made quick work of Ernests Gulbis winning 6-2, 7-5, 6-3 in 88 minutes during second round action. “I thought I played well,” said Murray. “I served really well for the whole match. Apart from the very first game where he had a couple of chances on my serve, I didn't give him another break point. I used my variety very well. It was much, much better than the first match, against Robert Kendrick. I stayed focused on my own serve. I didn't give him any opportunities. It was very solid.” He recently won the AEGON Championships at Queen's Club which is the build up to Wimbledon and it was Andy’ first win on grass. This is why he is a favorite, but there was no Roger Federer at the AEGON. Andy is 40-6 this year with four titles and 12 career titles. Andy has not dropped a set to Viktor Troicki in the two matches they played.
