There are those who'd have hoped that the 1st British Grand Slam winner for 74 years would be on Wimbledon's green and pleasant lands but if money speaks the truth it will be Melbourne.
Here at extrabet we stuck our neck above the parapet today and offered 9/2 about Andy Murray winning the Australian Open when the next best price was 4/1. Within half an hour we'd wound our neck in and back were to 10/3 after the deluge of cash for the young Scot.
"If Murray wins the Australian it's bread and water for us for a while" says extrabet's Chris Shillington.
As a result we've pushed Federer out to Best Price in the market at 15/8.
