Murray has a good chance to become #1 next year

[Rusty669]

It'll be a very sad day for tennis if Murray ever gets to be number 1 of the world

[Headshotterer]

Not at all. Ferrer will defeat Murray at the French. Either Nadal, Djokivic or Federer will beat Murray in Wimbledon, US, or Aus.

You're the second person on this thread to try and draw an analogy between something that isn't possible with something that is.

Sonicare doesn't have the ATP ranking to compete in the above tournaments, and given that he is nothing more than a guy who trolls on a tennis messagboard, I can't see many TD's offering him a wildcard.

Not the brightest star in the galaxy that Sonicare.

I don't see him ending the year #1, not with Novak and Nadal (if his health holds up for an entire year obviously) but he could reach #1 at some point during the next season, why not ?

Nole is odds on with the bookies for YE number 1, Murray is around 3/1, Rafa around 5/1, roger around 8/1.

Not sure I agree with the odds or the order, but no doubt Nole is hot favourite.

[The Moonballer]

Nadal usually makes the final of slams depending on whether Mugray gets in the SF (a bye), but it seems like Murray has improved.

I think Murray can beat Nadull now, but he is Nadulls' fanboy so I doubt it.

Murray is a better player than Nadull now. He just has to not lose his head

Not saying it's going to happen - but it's not like it couldn't happen.

Very true Batz

People talk as if Novak has already won the AO. All tend to forget that Murray was on match points last time they met at AO. If Murray takes out Djokovic in the semi finals then anything is possible

Not strictly true mate - Murray had 2 BP at 15-40 on Nole's serve when it was 5-5 in the 5th. Had Murray taken one of those points then he would have been serving for the match. although given that Murray has twice lost to Nole from serving for the match, nothing is guaranteed!

That's because Djokovic always turns it around when he's on the brink of losing. Maybe next time they face at the AO Murray will take his chances and take him out.

Murray has prevented the "Rafa Slam" in USO 2008.

Yes i forgot that, because it did not happen.

Now that Nadal has been out for a while, Murray has a big chance against Nadal in slams on all surfaces except clay.

[kalyan4fedever]

That's because he has. And Murray didn't have match points last time they played at the AO that I can recall.

Murray still really pushed Djokovic in the match and had several chances to close out the match, just didn't take them.
