AFP, LONDON: Andy Murray finds himself in the unusual position of favourite to lift a second Wimbledon title on Sunday with fate seemingly doing its best to make sure the British star captures a third career Grand Slam crown.
The 29-year-old world number two faces Milos Raonic, the first Canadian man to reach a final at the majors, in what will be the first Wimbledon title match since 2002 not to feature Novak Djokovic, Roger Federer or Rafael Nadal.
It will also be Murray's first final from 11 at the majors where he hasn't faced either Djokovic or Federer against whom he has lost eight times.
And if Murray needed any more convincing that this will be the year when he adds to his 2012 US Open and 2013 Wimbledon titles it's seeing Ivan Lendl back in his coaching corner.
