<p>David Cameron has sent a good luck message to tennis star Andy Murray ahead of his latest bid to win a Grand Slam.</p>
<p>Murray is hoping to become the first British man to triumph in one of tennis&#8217;s premier events for 75 years when he plays in the Australian Open final on Sunday.</p>
<p>In his message, the Prime Minister wished the Scot the &#8220;very best of luck&#8221; in overcoming Serbian rival Novak Djokovic.</p>
<p>&#8220;You have played incredibly well to reach the final for the second year running, and everyone back at home is very proud of you. We&#8217;ll all be cheering you on,&#8221; he wrote.</p>
<p>Mr Cameron &#8211; a keen tennis player himself &#8211; also joked that Murray had been helped by their practice session when he visited Downing Street last November. &#8220;I hope the volley drills we did in No 10 last year will come in useful!&#8221; he added.</p>
<p>Murray&#8217;s grandparents, Roy and Shirley Erskine, are facing a nervous wait in his home town of Dunblane. The pair are hoping it will be third time lucky for the 23-year-old, who has lost in two Grand Slam finals before &#8211; the 2008 US Open and last year&#8217;s Australian Open.</p>
<p>The last Briton to win a Grand Slam title was Fred Perry at the US Open in 1936. Mr Erskine said: &#8220;The first time Andy got to a final we had no idea what to expect but now we realise just how massive it is.</p>
<p>&#8220;We still haven&#8217;t decided where we will watch the game. Last year we went away to watch it with friends a few miles away. I think we want to be on our own, somewhere quiet so we can scream and shriek out loud at the TV. The nerves won&#8217;t be gone until lunchtime tomorrow when we will hopefully be celebrating a win.&#8221;</p>
<p>Murray secured his spot in the final after beating Spaniard David Ferrer in what he called an &#8220;unbelievably tough&#8221; test. Millions are expected to watch the match on TV after 6.3 million tuned in to last year&#8217;s Australian Open to watch Murray lose to Roger Federer.</p>
<p>Scotland&#8217;s First Minister, Alex Salmond, said: &#8220;Now&#8217;s the day and now&#8217;s the hour! The whole of Scotland is behind you, and will be cheering you on from near and far for a famous victory.&#8221;</p>
