Murray has been unfortunate that he is playing at the same time as 2 of the greatest of all time (Federer & Nadal) & also at the same time when Djokovic has possibly the greatest season ever by a male tennis player

that was really just a poke at fanny :mrgreen:

every era has its great players, every era has players who just weren't quite good enough.

sampras, agassi. courier
becker, edberg, willander
borg,mcenroe, connors

hard to say murray would have had guaranteed wins in those era's. especially when his game is built on power.

Why did you not mention Jeremy Bates in those greats?

andy roddick will retire at the end of the us open. another who would have won many more grand slams if not for federer.

really should have won the 09 wimbledon final, still remember the smash he dumped in the net at a set up and set point/break point.
