pantene proV Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 Pray tell, what is this percentage this season? How high is stupidly high? 1-6 v Verdasco AO 4th rd 1-6 v Nadal Indian Wells final No 0-6 sets until Gonzo. and erm.....that's it! Murray has had an amazing 1st half of the season compared to last year and he now approaches the half where he comes alive. After the grass he'll be nigh on unstoppable. People who know tennis will realise this. He's more than halved his seeding for each of the slams between 08 & 09 which gives you all the indications you need to know about where he's headed. That kind of statistic is incredibly hard to do when you're already in the top 10. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone along the lines of Del Potro, or thomas berdych 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Widge Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 (edited) Murray, at wimbledon, will get put out by a big server before the semi finals. Someone along the lines of Del Potro, or thomas berdych Del Potro isnt that big a server, not compared to Roddick.

StewartyMac Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 Del Potro isnt that big a server, not compared to Roddick. Murray owns Roddick on grass. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yer Maw Has a Sac. Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 Del Potro isnt that big a server, not compared to Roddick. Neither he is, Del Potro only had Federer scrambling about the court trying to get the ball back, especially in the earlier stages of the match. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pantene proV Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 He is now Queens Top Seedhttp://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/tennis/8085394.stm @ Nadal Didn't he play every clay tournament up till the French? Then he loses and all of a sudden "ooh my knees!" Fair enough some of those events were mandatory but still, defending his Wimbledon crown without a proper grass warm-up? I suspect there may more to this and a big chance he'll pull out of SW19 too, knee problems don't just go away. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Widge Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 Nadal always has had problems with his knees, that has been aparent for a while now as every now and again he doesnt play a tournament. good news for Murray, hopefull he can win Queens, his biggest threat as for as I am concerned is Gael Monfils, he is incredibly dangerous. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True but now it's starting to affect him earlier in the season. It's not usually till after the US open that he's a busted flush but his knees are becoming a bigger factor every passing season. Murray being favourite for Queens worries me, though it will be a great indicator for Wimbledon if he can take it all in his stride. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedWeb Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 Anyone know when Murray will take to the court for his Second Round match ? I know he's playing Andreas Seppi of Italy and it will probably be tomorrow but not sure when. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drs Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 Nadal always has had problems with his knees, that has been aparent for a while now as every now and again he doesnt play a tournament. Indeed, which is why Federer will probably play on into his mid 30's and win at least another 4 Slams as Nadal will be lucky to last another 3 years at the top level. My money is on Federer retiring in 2012 after winning the Olympic Gold to complete the Gold Slam. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of agree about Nadal. He puts his body through hell even when he wins 6-0 6-0. Wouldn't surprise me if he packed it in around his mid to late 20's. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Widge Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 Andy and Hewitt have won their first round doubles match against Roddick and Ram.Jamie plays his doubles match tomorrow I think. Murray and Hewitt combo, whoever is on the end of that pairing, must be thinking it is near enough the quickest double act ever. Genius. Aslo a great way to get more games on the grass. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
