Murray into AEGON Championships final

Andy Murray stormed into the final of the AEGON Championships with a straight sets victory over four-time champion Andy Roddick this afternoon.

The British number one controlled the match from the outset, breaking Roddick at the first opportunity in both sets on his way to a 6-3 6-1 victory in just 59 minutes.

Murray will face either Jo-Wilfried Tsonga or the more exciting prospect of James Ward, the British number two, in tomorrow's final.

Roddick could simply not touch him as Murray, who has put all concerns over his ankle injury behind him, produced an exhibition of top-class tennis.

Murray mixed his game up magnificently, passing Roddick with some exquisite winners and teasing the American with some traditional drop-shots.

"I got off to a good start. Andy is one of the toughest guys to break on the tour. I managed to get a break early in both sets, everything that touched my racket was going in," said Murray.

"That doesn't happen much on court. I was lucky."
