He's playing well enough right now to suggest he could make a big run at Wimbledon. Might even manage to get himself a seeding by then. Link to comment

don corleone Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 Andy Murray is fucking incredible! 💪 Link to comment
Roberto Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 How does he do it. He was dead and buried there. Wow. Link to comment
Singapore Steve Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 looking knackered now. 2 sets to 1 down, not looking good. Limping quite a bit. Link to comment
Ten Caat Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 Well if he's going to progress it's going to have to be another 5 setter. It looks unlikely but after the other night you just can't rule it out C'mon Andy! Link to comment

He was a nonentity. If Murray was 10 years younger, playing in the same era (post Sampras, pre Federer), he would’ve won double figures Slams easily. Link to comment
tutankamun Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 Got the break. Serving 1st in this set too. Go Murray. Link to comment

tutankamun Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 Supporting Djokovic now, although I’ve heard he might be injured? If that’s true, huge opportunity for someone in that side of the draw. Link to comment
Reed or deed Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 11 hours ago, Parklife said: I don't think you can say every single tennis player that's never won a slam is a "loser". Henman was a very good player over a long period of time. He's not even close to Andy though. Andy has had the misfortune to be very similar ages to the 3 best male players of all time. Andy has played 11 slam finals (10 vs Djokovic or Federer) and won 3. He's also lost 10 slam Semi finals (8 vs Nadal, Djokovic of Federer (plus 1 to each of Roddick and Wawrikwa)). Without those three, he'd have double digit slams, no question. He's an all-time great. One of the best to ever do what he does. The fact he's still giving us moments like he has this week, despite his age, despite his metal hip and despite dips in form, is a testament to his greatness in a complete other way. He's my hero. He should be everyone's hero. ❤️❤️ Good post bud. Would shag his wife as well. Just as a matter of interest. Link to comment

Roberto Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 4 minutes ago, Parklife said: No he isn't. Depends what you base it on... Grand Slams? Nadal the GOAT then but I know Djokovic will over take that. Titles? Jimmy Conners it is then... and let's be honest, he isn't. Federer is exceptional and the original GOAT (that term only really came around during the time he played, its a new thing really). However IMO Djokovic will walk away from tennis the best ever. That's just my opinion... but it's shared by many, and not shared by others as you've just shown. But when all end their careers, most grand slams/titles will be telling and I reckon Djokovic will top them all. Link to comment
