Murray plays down Wimbledon hype



Andy Murray insists his triumph at Queen?s will count for nothing once Wimbledon begins.

The hype behind the Scot is in full swing and Murray admits he has never been in better shape heading to SW19.

But the 22-year-old was quick to warn his legions of fans that Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal are still the men to beat at Wimbledon.

"Physically I feel stronger, and after Wimbledon last year I went away and worked really hard in the United States on the mental side as well," he said. "This is definitely the best I've felt going into Wimbledon.

"I know how hard it is to win Wimbledon and I won't be getting ahead of myself. Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal are the favourites - I'm in the group behind.

"Winning Queen's was brilliant and gives a good benchmark of where people are but neither Federer nor Nadal were there this year.

"Wimbledon is a totally different animal, it's over two weeks and they are best of five-set matches.

"I'll probably have to beat at least one of them if I'm to win Wimbledon."
