He can do it and he will. Eventually he will tweak his game some but hes only what? 23 or so. These athletes have so many years left

You can do it the Del Potro way- beating Nadal and Federer (the HC GOAT) in a row and FULLY deserving your first slam

or you can do it, probably, the only way Murray would be able to - lucky draw, facing some bozo in the final who chokes at every stop
I think thats called the Gaudio way

Even if he wins,he will still play the same ugly tennis,but i doubt,cause he cracks under pressure.Stepanek toyed with him last week,and he likes to play the drop shot,and cat-mouse type of tennis and took a lesson.

Poor guy..

As much as I dislike Murray, I'd rather have him be blown away in straight sets (a la USO style) than have to suffer the anguish Coria did..

Anything is possible like Gaudio winning a slam or you know 2002 autralian open champion and by all means murray will get lucky once.

You certainly need to revise what you are saying, because this makes no sense what so ever. You play 6 rounds in a major, you win every one then you do deserve to win a slam. Simple as that.

I do believe Murray will win a slam next year. I predict the AO, even if it is a slow HC, i think it's his best chance.

I dont see him winning one next year. He always seems to struggle at the big tournaments. Just cant see him winning against Federer, Nadal, Del Potro and Djokovic during the same tournament.

I sure hope so. Then he won't be labelled as a "great player who couldn't win one."
