I just KNEW I cursed it! I'm gonna swear never to preview another Andy vs. Andy tie again; the result always seems to go the way of the other Andy.

I've really nothing against Andy Murray, to be honest, I think he's one hell of a talent, and not to mention Britain's only hope right now.

It's just that it's Andy Roddick on the losing end again. Oh well.

This time, it wasn't even close to the three tight sets that I predicted. I wish I could say "oops," but that doesn't even cover it. Basically, we all knew from the start, Murray is the more talented, all-rounded, and in-form of the two Andys.

He's just won in Abu Dhabi, he's beaten Nadal once this year and Federer twice, so that can't do any harm to his confidence at all.

He was always going to be the favourite, and look at that, he didn't face a single break point in the first set.

That just pretty much sums up how the entire match went. 6-4, 6-2, Roddick with much spirit, guts, but just not enough to get past the Scotsman, who's pretty much got to be the favourite at the Aussie Open right now, if he isn't already.

Any consolation for my Andy? He's put out some decent performances this tournament, and he's had a good run so early in this year.

That's gonna give him some confidence going into the season too. He's got the play to stay close to the top, and for one, it probably won't take much to top his Grand Slam record last season, where the furthest he reached in all four Slams was a Quarterfinal round.

So, all the best to both Andys, and here's to a great season ahead!
