Tommy Nooka Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 I've been quite critical of Murray last year but I've been happy to eat some humble pie so far this season. Fatigue though? Not really buying that one, I hope no one got a bit excited and bet on him for RG! If he's knackered after 2 weeks of 3 setters (most of which were over pretty quickly) there's no way he's going all the way at the FO. I think he's been too busy consummating his marriage/trying to make a mini-Murray. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheScarf Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 To be fair, he's basically had 2 days off in the last 3 weeks, and both of them were spent travelling. If you're looking to place blame, place it at the door of the Munich weather. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AberdeenBud Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 No point running himself in into the ground this close to RG and especially given the form he's in. Hopefully some long gruelling matches ahead. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loki Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 (edited) To be fair, he's basically had 2 days off in the last 3 weeks, and both of them were spent travelling. If you're looking to place blame, place it at the door of the Munich weather. Djokovic skipped Madrid to stop himself being fatigued. He also had an intensive training camp in Barcelona ten days before he started in Munich. I think he should have skipped the whole tournament instead of withdrawing after one match. Nadal with his defeat will be seeded 7th or 8th in the French Open. He just did enough by beating his R16 opponent. If he exited to Isner and Wawrinka won Rome he would have dropped to ninth if Ferrer also made the Final. With the way Nadal is playing you could see him making heavy weather of the earlier rounds and meeting Djokovic in the QF. A defeat there could see him slip out of the top ten. He hasn't beaten a top ten player off clay since Jan 2014. Nadal doesn't quite look the same player anymore. I think he needs a rethink in his game. When Federer had his bad year in 2013 and Murray had his in 2014 you could see that they were almost there. They just needed a rebuild in confidence, and some slight tweaking to get back into the top four. I don't have the same confidence in Nadal. To get the decima would probably be his greatest achivement, considering how far he has fallen. Edited May 16, 2015 by Loki 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The-coo-shed Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 Yeah djoko is on top form. Just have to hope that nadal is in djokos half and Murray in Feds. Quietly confident about this Roland Garros for Murray. Just seems like he is enjoying playing again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheScarf Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 Yep, Djokovic to complete the set in a few weeks. He looks unstoppable. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 (edited) The draw for Queens is out and Murray has a very interesting draw. A Qualifier to begin with, and then a potential clash with Verdasco, then Dimitrov (current champion), Cilic and then Nadal/Wawrinka.

AberdeenBud Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 I imagine Andy will play the doubles with Jamie if it's 1-1 after today. Tough ask though, that's some squad the French have, 3 of the world's top 12. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
