Andy Murray in the Finals of Wimbledon will face Federer in the Final

Andy Murray beat Jo-Wilfried Tsonga 6-3, 6-4, 3-6, 7-5 Andy Murray ended Britain's 74-year wait for a male Wimbledon finalist on Friday as the world number four clinched semifinal victory over French fifth seed Jo-Wilfried Tsonga.Murray's triumph consigned a miserable run of 11 semifinal failures by British men to the history books and emulated the achievement of Bunny Austin, the last home challenger to reach the Wimbledon men's final back in 1938.The 25-year-old had lost at the semifinal stage for the last three years, joining Tim Henman,Roger Taylor and Mike Sangster on the list of British near-misses at the All England Club.But decades of anguish faded from view in front of a jubilant Centre Court crowd as Murray booked a showdown with six-time champion Roger Federer in Sunday's final.While Murray's victory has put one ghost to rest, the Scot won't be truly satisfied until he has become the first British man to win Wimbledon since Fred Perry in 1936.Murray's meeting with Federer will be the Scot's fourth attempt to win a Grand Slam final following defeats at the Australian Open in 2010 and 2011 and the 2008 US Open.
