SUE BARKER ON THE WIMBLEDON CHAMPIONSHIPS
Andy Murray showed in his second round match at Wimbledon that he is the real deal.

I think he is going to win many, many grand slams if he stays as motivated as he appears now.

It must have felt like the longest nine days of his life after winning at the Queen's Club and then having to wait for Wimbledon to start with all the hype surrounding him.

He is unbelievable, he has that incredibly relaxed attitude to everything he does and seems to be able to cope despite still only being 22.

I reached the Wimbledon semis when I was 21 and found all the attention you have to deal with as a Brit here extremely overwhelming.

Roger Federer looks absolutely magnificent and would be a formidable foe for Murray in a potential final.

For me, Andy Roddick remains the biggest danger to the Scot in his half of the draw.

But beware 2002 winner, Lleyton Hewitt, who I am thrilled is doing well as I picked him as my outsider.

I admire him and his attitude as a player so much, in fact he is probably the only Australian I'll be cheering this summer.

In the women's singles, the Williams sisters look destined to be in the final again as they are in a different league to everyone else here at Wimbledon.

It almost seems like it will have to be an injury or an absolutely awful match to stop them winning again.

It's wonderful to back here working with all the old faces. We have such a giggle and they are all extremely rude to me, apart from Tracy Austin who is an absolute delight.

I learning that Tim Henman can be very rude, not so much on camera as that's more for John McEnroe, but off camera he can be very cheeky!

Sue Barker presents BBC One and BBC Two's TV coverage of the Wimbledon Championships.
