shaun.lawson Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 wonder if in 20 years Andy will be found slumped in a taxi reekin of his own pish, inconsolable as he remises on a career full of diddy cups.......... I wonder if in 20 years you'll be found slumped in a taxi reeking of your own pish, after putting your house on Andy Murray failing to win a major - and losing everything? I wonder too if you'll have the bottle to admit you were wrong if and when he wins a Grand Slam - or if it happens to be any of the US, French or Aussie Opens, you'll deride it as a wee cup?

In 20 years time he'll probably have about ?50M in the bank and be known/remembered as one of Britain's all time great sportsmen. Where'll you be?!

rossaldinho Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 I thought his best chance of a major was the US open but the tennis he's played this week was exquisite. With rafa nursing an injury Murray may well be in with a good chance of winning wimbledon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I P Knightley Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 For years, all of us north of Hadrians wall have whined and complained about the bias reporting and exaggeration that went anywhere that Tiger Tim went. Murray has more talent in his pinky that Henman ever had. He'll never get the same hype and recognition because he isn't ever going to be a media darling. I think you're wrong there. He's getting the hype all right for having won at Queen's. This is not a significant tournament on the tennis tour; I think it gets 250 point, might be 500, whilst Murray's won Masters series at least twice as prestigious (ranking points-wise) and the coverage hasn't been quite as excited as we're seeing now. Might be just because Queen's is on the BBC but they're definitely getting their adulation out of proportion to the achievement. He can only beat those put in front of him and he did so exceptionally well this week. I think the media are adapting well to Murray and he's maturing in his ways of dealing with them. I thought his best chance of a major was the US open but the tennis he's played this week was exquisite. With rafa nursing an injury Murray may well be in with a good chance of winning wimbledon. Nadal and Roddick - two serious contenders for Wimbledon - both face a struggle to get to their peaks in time. There are plenty of other banana skins for Murray to slip on. This week shows that grass is no longer the one-dimensional match surface it once was. It's not ideal for Murray but there isn't really a dominant grass-courter in the way Nadal has owned clay for the last few years. The big question is whether Murray can keep the heid for 7 five set matches. His developing maturity suggests he could. But I wouldn't put a tenner on him!

Carl Spackler Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 I hope he wins Wimbledon. However, if he does be prepared to be knee-deep in middle English spunk.

JWL Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 Murray is an arsehole, he's going to be the Colin Montgomerie of tennis, he'll win diddy tournaments, but never a major, just like the wee poofs football team Well done Andy, great performance under pressure today. Apparently though your'e going to be the Monty of tennis:hat2:, we'll see. Brilliant comment from someone who couldn't buy a win in several games of tennis with this poster.

Might be just because Queen's is on the BBC but they're definitely getting their adulation out of proportion to the achievement. good post, although i think the reason for the hype around Queen's is of course because it's on grass and gives an indication (although missing Fed and Nadal it's not as valid) of who's likely to do well at Wimby. Mr Murray has played exceptionally well this week and i will be surprised if he doesn't reach at least the semi's. Is he favourite? No. Does he have a very good chance of winning it? Yes. I think it might just be worth a cheeky wee tenner ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djf Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 With neither Fed or Nadal playing a warm up tournie Andy has a really good chance.

The big question is whether Murray can keep the heid for 7 five set matches. His developing maturity suggests he could. But I wouldn't put a tenner on him! It's purely because Queen's is a grass-court tournament. The British media want to see British players doing the damage at Wimbledon, Queen's is a warm-up tournament for Wimbledon that lots of previous winners have won. It's natural that this will be the win the media makes most out of. Hard and clay are just side dishes to Wimbledon for most of the British media - it's blinkered, but it's true. Murray winning at Queen's allows them to get excited about the possibility of a British male winner at Wimbledon. FWIW, I don't think they'll see it just yet. For me, Federer will take back what is his and cement his place as the greatest ever. As much as I like Murray, I kind of hope that's what happens as well. Murray can win the US Open instead and have Wimbledon in a year or two - hopefully. As an aside, I trust everyone on this thread who claims to hate arrogance from their sportsmen were thoroughly disgusted when Paul Hartley was at his peak for us?
