Murray faces heavy workload before Federer final

Andy Murray faces a heavy workload before his Olympic final with Roger Federer after the British star and partner Laura Robson moved into the mixed doubles semi-finals on Saturday.

Murray will be going for his first singles gold medal when he faces Federer on Sunday in a rematch of last month's Wimbledon final, which the Swiss great won in four sets.

But the world number four has already had to expend valuable energy before that best-of-five sets showdown after being forced to play two mixed doubles matches in one day following rain earlier in the week which disrupted the schedule at the All England Club.

Murray and Robson, who were given a wildcard into the event, defeated Australian duo Lleyton Hewitt and Samantha Stosur 6-3, 3-6, 10/8 in a hard-fought quarter-final that lasted one hour and 20 minutes on Centre Court.

And the British pair will be back in action later on Saturday when they face Germany's Sabine Lisicki and Christopher Kas in the semi-finals.
