THE REMARKABLE ROGER FEDERER AT THE AUSTRALIAN OPEN TENNIS FINAL

Of course I wanted Andy Murray to win. The country's a bit short on good news stories so far this year, so a win would have cheered us up no end.

However,Federer deserved to win - he was playing at the top of his game - and it was a pleasure to watch him.

His play today was so single-cream fluent, seemingly effortless and with a killer accuracy that was a wonder to behold.

Hopefully, Andy Murray will have learnt a lot from this master-class display and will up his game even more, which is pretty damn good anyway.

Maybe he'll even reach that higher standard at Wimbledon:I am an unashamed optimist after all.
