Andy Murray

[Deano]

Looks like he's announced the end of his career.

Greatest British sportsman ever? It's a yes from me.

 

[niknak_123]

His mother won’t let him

 

[cluffy]

Great sportsman and great bloke

I’d go as far to say ‘one of’ but certainly not ‘the’.

it’s a no from me

 

[jubblies]

He's no Jeff Whitley

 

[Kent_Mackem]

it’s a no from me

No from me too.


Difficult to choose who is though. Sort of people I'm thinking:

Steve Redgrave
Alastair Cook
Daley Thompson
Chris Hoy
Lee Cattermole
Ronnie O'Sullivan
Paula Radcliffe (if we're allowed sports women too)
Steve Cram
Sebastian Coe
Nick Faldo

I'm sure I'll have missed other obvious contenders.

Greatest British sportsman ever?

He’s not even the greatest British tennis player, is he?

Best British tennis player of the 21st century yes...

Sort of people I'm thinking:

Lee Barry for the win...

 

[Musicman]

No from me too.

[Boot Cleaner]

What he has achieved in arguably the greatest era of tennis is nothing short of phenomenal. We even won a Davis cup FFS. Greatest British tennis player ever.

I don't get the hate. Top bloke,survived Dunblane, does loads for charity's and doesn't take himself seriously.

Hopefully he can get through it to a Wimbledon farewell.

 

[chunkyshanhawk53]

Wanted England to lose at football. Therefore I hate him. I hate him so much. He’s a disgrace to Britain.

 

[errant]

doesn't take himself seriously

I’ll give you that...

[Arkle]

He’s not even the greatest British tennis player, is he?

Best British tennis player of the 21st century yes...

It's difficult to compare eras, particularly if you go back to pre-war days. It's fair to say that Murray is the greatest British player of the open era though.

 

[errant]

in arguably the greatest era of tennis

I’m no expert in tennis, so genuine question... is it really?

It's fair to say that Murray is the greatest British player of the open era though.

Fair point well made...

I suppose he just shades Jeremy Bates...

 

[Ricci's Special Kebabs]

Gutted for him, he’s carried British Tennis for over a decade.

Should have probably won more Grand slams but for me the way he contributed to our Davis Cup win was was nothing short of remarkable.

Not even close

unfortunate to be around at the same time as 3 of the best of all time or he'd have won a lot more - I quite like the miserable Scottish twat tbh
