Murray mania

Its a big day for Andy Murray as he faces Roger Federer in the US Open final later today.

The Brit booked his place in the final when he beat world number one Rafael Nadal 6-2;7-6;4-6;6-4. Murray was leading two sets to love when rain interrupted play once play resumed Nadal fought back wining the third set 6-4 but in the end victory belonged to Murray.

The 21-year-old faces one of the toughest challenges when he takes on Federer. The former darling of tennis is the reigning champion at Flushing Meadows, with four titles to his name. If Murray is to go all the way and dethrone Federer he will become the first British man to win a Grand Slam title in 72 years. And too think if the pressure of playing Federer wasn't enough!
