Andy can still have final say

-

NOVAK DJOKOVIC has become the bane of the bookies but is unbackable at a best-priced 8/11 to win the Australian Open. That air of invincibil­ity makes him a logical choice to triumph once again but only high rollers will want to bet on him. I would love to make a case for Andy Murray at around the 11/2 mark but he has little prospect of mastering the Serb at present. However, Andy can still be backed with confidence to make the final in Melbourne at 2/1 (Sky Bet). It is a tournament he loves, with four finals reached since 2010 and the super Scot has an even better chance of doing so again as the second seed this time around.
