6-30-12 Murray looks to give Wimbledon First British Champion since 1936

In 1936, Fred Perry won the Men's Singles Championship at Wimbledon. At that time, it was common for an English man to hold the trophy, but not so much today. It has been 76 years since Perry's championship and Great Britain is looking for one man to end the drought.

Andy Murray, the 25 year old from London, England is the 4th seed in this years tournament and is looking to take advantage of the wide open field.

In the past, Murray has been successful in the tournament, but could never quite get over the hump. In his last three appearances at this major, Murray has been a semi-finalist in all three.

Luckily for Andy, the two men that defeated him over the past three years have already been knocked out of the tournament. Rafael Nadal was stunned in the Second Round by 100th ranked Lukas Rosol in 5 sets while Roddick was ousted by 7th ranked Spaniard David Ferrer in the third round.

Murray took another step towards greatness on Saturday when he defeated Marcos Baghdatis in 4 sets.

The first set was a breeze for Murray but the second set was a different story. Baghdatis broke Murray early in the set and cruised to tie the match, winning 6-3.

After the second set, the roof of Winbledon was closed and so was Baghadis's chance to make it into the Round of 16.

As the clock struck 11, Murray defeated Baghadis 7-5, 3-6, 7-5, 6-1 and will face Marin Cilic on Monday,

Now being the highest seed in his side of the bracket, anything less than a Wimbledon championship would be failure.

With Federer and Djokovic struggling in their early round matches, this might be the best chance Murray will have to win at Wimbledon and finally break the drought.
