2010 Wimbledon Andy Murray vs Jo-Wilfried Tsonga Betting Odds: Britain's Andy Murray will take on Jo-Wilfried Tsonga of France in tomorrow's quarterfinals at Wimbledon. The match, which is scheduled to begin at approximately 6:20am ET on Wednesday, will mark the fourth career meeting between the two top 10 players. 2010 Wimbledon Betting Odds at Bodog.com have Murray listed as a -400 moneyline favorite in the critical contest.
With England's soccer team flopping in the World Cup, perhaps, no player at this year's Championships has more pressure
on him than Andy Murray. Not only is the Scottish born Murray attempting to restore some of the nation's pride, he is also working to become the first Brit to win at Wimbledon since Fred Perry took home the trophy in 1936.
Thus far Murray has handled things well, winning all four of his matches in straight sets. His latest victim, American Sam Querrey, fell to the 23 year old 7-5, 6-3, 6-4 on Monday. Murray had 19 fewer unforced errors and four more winners in the match than did Querrey. The Dunblane native also won 63 percent of the time on his second serve compared to 38 percent for Querrey.
Murray, who is 2-1 in his previous three matches with Tsonga, can secure his second consecutive semifinals appearance at Wimbledon with a win tomorrow. Murray has reached the finals at the Australian Open (2010) and U.S. Open (2008), but he has never played in the championship match at the All England Lawn Tennis Club.
Jo-Wilfried Tsonga will be aiming for his third career semifinals appearance at a Grand Slam when he takes on Murray in the morning. The French born player, who currently ranks 10th on the ATP's men's singles chart, reached the quarterfinals at Wimbledon for the first time ever by beating fellow Frenchman Julien Benneteau 6-1, 6-4, 3-6, 6-1 yesterday. Tsonga had 14 aces and 39 winners in the victory.
Tsonga and Murray last played at the Rogers Cup in Toronto in 2009; Murray won the semifinals match 6-4, 7-6. The two players have only played each other on a hard surface.
