Must admit, I've not followed it this time. Let me know if he gets to the final, then he can be honorary English again for a couple of hours until he loses.
Yes well done Murray.
Just these English people ahead of you in British tennis accomplishments now:
John Lloyd (Aussie Open Finalist)
Greg Rusedski (US Open Finalist)
Tim Henman (*multiple* grand slam semi-finalist)
Hopefully he might get to the final, but I'm not holding my breath.

He has been in super form thus far. The only worry is that he may have peaked too early. I had only just recovered from late nights with the Ashes and now we have the tennis 
All hail the perennial bottler. Which niggling injury has he lined up to blame for his ultimate and inevitable failure?

Perennial bottler? 
He's won 16 titles, $13m and been consistently in the top 5 of the world for the last two years.

2010 Aussie Open finalist?
He should pack up tennis and give football a go. He'd probably walk into your shit national team.

QED - he's been in the Top 5 for two years and not won one of the major titles. Flaw in his psychology. I predict he will never win a grand slam tournament.Perennial bottler?
Bring back Bryan wade!!

No. Until he wins a grand slam he has done f*** all in my book.

something clever
He's better than Rusedski and Henman who were good players during a relatively poor time for mens tennis.

He's 23. He's got plenty of time. I predict he'll win multiple grand slam tournaments.

I've got a bet with a mate for which I've predicted the same. Every grand slam I sit through hoping he gets knocked out. £100 to the winner.
The £100 won't be worth all the suffering I'm going to go through until his retirement.

you are comparing andy murray with tim henman, greg rusedski, jeremy bates, chris wilkinson, mark petchey, chris bailey and barry cowan?
OMG!
We both know Murray is already a FAR better player than Henman.
Plus you're not going to win. Murray is very young and already miles better than Henman or Rusedski. He's got YEARS. Once Federer has retired it's between him and Nadal for EVERY trophy going, and he can beat Nadal. It's not IF, but WHEN.
