Sonoftherock Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 Hello? What's this juicy gossip that you've since retracted?? Not that exciting I'm afraid. Via a series of unfortunate concidences, I happened to be speaking to an associate of John O'Donnell (the surgeon who carried out Murrays first hip procedure in Melbourne) last week. He'd seen Murrays scans, knew the injury, the extent and explained the process behind some of the decision he made... which I relayed on here. I don't really think it's a big deal - but as I haven't seen the specifics discussed in the public domain, I'll leave it there. What i would say is, I know that Murray would have been playing through some level of restriction and with fairly extreme pain, during the period he reached world number one. It doesn't particularly surprise me though... the guy is a warrior. Link to comment
Poodler Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 I wasn't having a go at you SOTR. What I do think is a big deal is medical professionals talking so flippantly about the medical history of someone just because they're in the public eye. FWIW I wish you well with the route you're going down, nightmare at your somewhat youthful presumed age Link to comment

Parklife Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 What a man. Great show of all his old grit, determination and will to win last night. It was just like old times watching him battle through a marathon match at a slam. A very tough match next up against Auger-Alliassaime though. Link to comment
The Cockney Don Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Murray Mania is still alive. All british clash with Evans in the 3rd Round if they both progress. 1 Link to comment

Even more impressive considering he announced his retirement early last year... or so everyone in the press assumed. ? Link to comment
redstrummer Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Watched the full match last night . What a warrior !! looked down and out , incredible comeback Link to comment
maryhilldon Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Great to watch some tennis with a dog in the fight again. Great comeback, just like olden times. Link to comment
aberdeen1970 Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Aye. Hopefully Andy does a bit of damage in a few tournaments once he gets going again. Would be great to see him competing at the top level, even if it is just for a short while. Link to comment

Ramandu Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 I had the Andy Murray match on in the background there. He's still got the hunger to win, he was 3 match points down on the other guy's serve and somehow managed to go on win. They kept showing folk in the crowd with a dons supporters flag - anyone on here a member of the Doha Aberdeen supporters club? Link to comment
The Cockney Don Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 Can't see him beating the Ruskie. Link to comment
Jigsaw666 Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 Medvedev would be some scalp but even getting to the final is a hell of an effort considering he's come from behind for most of his matches. Link to comment
Parklife Posted February 25, 2023 Share Posted February 25, 2023 Even with a defeat today he'll be back inside the top 50. A win and he'll be in the top 40. A great platform to build off going in to Indian Wells and Miami, where there's a ton of points on offer. Not sure if he'll play much clay court this year, so the points he gains over the next month will be absolutely critical if he's going to manage to get himself seeded for Wimbledon. If he does that and can avoid a seed until round 3, he'll really set himself up for one last bit run. What a guy he is. ❤️ Link to comment

Zverev just coming back from his ankle injury last year. Big name but not at 100%. A good win nonetheless though. Yesterdays win was a good one too, up against a talented up and coming player. Medvedev today a real test against one of the very, very best. Link to comment
Guest milne_afc Posted February 25, 2023 Share Posted February 25, 2023 What happened on the final point of his match yesterday? The opponent looked like he wasn’t even trying but looked genuinely shook when Murray won it. Link to comment
Jigsaw666 Posted February 25, 2023 Share Posted February 25, 2023 Bold effort but Medvedev just too good. 6-4 6-4. Link to comment

Incredible to think he's been in at least 10 Grand Slam finals and countless semifinals, losing almost every time to one of the 3 greatest male players of all time. In any other era, he'd have won 8-10 Grand Slams IMHO. I'd put him right up there with Agassi, Becker and the likes, possibly in the top 5/6 of all time. Link to comment
