Tuesday 17 January 2012 at 10:08
 Novak Djokovic remains the Australian Open favourite after an impressive start to the Australian Open 2012 and everyone seems to agree that he is the player to beat this year. Are there any other players we should be taking note of according to OLBG’s best tipsters?
Novak Djokovic Looks To Have the Support Of OLBG
Novak Djokovic has made a great start to the Australian Open as he bids to retain his 2011 crown and win a third Australian Open title. He has been the most tipped player in the OLBG Tipster Competition, a pretty huge 38.9% of OLBG Tipsters have backed Djokovic and his odds have already shortened to win the Australian Open, Djokovic can be backed at 13/10 currently with Sportingbet. Next best in the Australian Open betting is Roger Federer, he has won the Australian Open four times in eight years and obviously commands plenty of respect even if his last twelve months haven’t been as strong as some other players, Federer has attracted just 8.3% of tips on OLBG and might not be the best value therefore to win the Australian Open at odds of 4/1 with Paddy Power.
Tipsters Not Impressed By Andy Murray’s Start
Andy Murray has been the second most popular player in the OLBG Tipsters Competition, he is rated at 11/2 with Boylesports and 25% of tipsters have currently sided with the Scot. However, on Tuesday morning some tipsters were less than impressed with the start he made to his match, judoman stated:
“The way Murray has started against Harrison (broken twice in first set) you wouldn't want to back him at 16/1 let alone 6/1 for the title.”
At the time of writing Andy Murray is now rated at 11/2 with Victor Chandler and that puts him ahead of Rafael Nadal who is relatively unfancied this year at 7/1 with William Hill, Nadal has achieved the same amount of tips on OLBG as Roger Federer. Best of the rest could is Jo-Wilfried Tsonga who is way off the big four at 22/1 with Sportingbet, just ahead of Juan Martin Del Potro who is 25/1 with Victor Chandler.
