Who's career would you rather have? Murray or Delpo?

stebe has it all still ahead of him

Zarfot Z · 08-13-2012, 03:14 AM

Definitely Murray, given the fact that he is almost guaranteed a slam in the near future, and will most likely end up with more than one slam. Murray also has more Masters titles, ATP 1000 tournaments, a gold medal (as opposed to a bronze) and a more impressive resume overall.

Also a lot more money.

Considering how the dollar has increased it's value here Delpo is probably one of the highest paid sportsmen in the world lol.

If they both retired today then Del Potro! He is US OPen champion time will tell if he wins any more majors or Murray wins any but as it stands definitely Del PO!!

Murray. No contest. Slams are what matter most but this is an extreme case. 8 Masters + Olympic Gold + 4 slam finals all together are for sure worth more than 1 Slam title and no other titles above 500 level.

Dark Magician · 08-13-2012, 04:45 AM

Murray for sure.
More success (as already stated).
Wont want to spend 2 years in pain with a wrist injury when my prime seemed to begin.
And Murray cried in Wimb. final but the court was filled with Murray chants!!

Murray, consistently in the top four, more money, has won more masters and is more famous.

tennis_pro · 08-13-2012, 05:12 AM

Del Potro, sorry Andy 1 major is worth more than 0 majors

Even if he's probably going to win either the US Open or the Australian Open?

Well until that happens I take the 1 major Del Potro won over anything that Murray has.

But Andy has chances to win more, DP was a one off

sureshs · 08-13-2012, 07:48 AM

Nadal, because he defeats Fed so easily

it wasn't necessarily a one off, his abilities went straight down hill a couple months after and hasn't been in good form until late. it's not like he was able to compete at the same high level in the 11 slams after the 09USO and failed to capture a single one, if that was the case, then yeah, call it a one off.

The sad thing is he may never be able to reach that level again.

Okay maybe I was a bit harsh, fair enough but I don't believe he'll win another slam, I'm not saying Andy Definetly will but I believe he has a bigger chance

Biscuitmcgriddleson · 08-13-2012, 05:22 AM

Murray has a Ferrari and a lot more money and amongst the choices, you're splitting hairs. Del Po is a one trick pony so far, if he wins a another Major and Andy never wins one, that will be another question though.
