Lightbulb Like it or Not, Murray 2.0 has Arrived!

You can all reminsice of the good 'ol days of "choke job", 0-4, etc....etc... but those days are over...

You can also diminish an incredible, "against all odds", and unrelenting winds at the U.S. Open, wininng his 1st of many GS... but the fact is, like him or hate him, he's turned the corner twice on the World's biggest stages in 2012, the U.S. Open, and Wimbeldon Center Court at the Olymic Games. Kncoking off the the two top players in the world, in dominating, humiliating fashion!

Will he be perfect and have an amazing run like Joker of 2011? probably not.

Can he now win 1-2 slams a year? Absolutely.

Does he NOW realize he is AS good if not BETTER than his contemporaires? Yeah, with Lendl, yeah.

Is he afraid of losing anymore? Nope.

discuss.

In four years Murray will be sitting on 17 slams with four straight CYGS, of that there can be no doubt.

Don't be too cocky.. Your buy needed to avoid 2 of the big 3 and have windy conditions vs. Berdych just to take it all

As a Murray fan, all I ever wanted was for him to get one.

Everything else from now on is gravy.

Lol, no. Djokovic 2.0 is gone. Murray almost lost to 2009-form Djoko even though the wind was heavily favouring him. Murray wouldn't have gotten more than 4 games/set in the USO 2011 final.

Murray would have been lucky to even win a set in the final vs. Last year's Nole. Nole wouldn't have lost that 1st TB or that close 2nd set I don't believe if we are talking last year's noel

I have long promoted Nole's last year as the greatest year in tennis. Ahead of federers 2006 simply becos he absolutely pawned roger and rafa (2 all time greats) and peak rafa across 3 surfaces..unheard of.

Djokovic is awesome! I love his game! But I also like that there is NOW a new kid on the block with some confidence...like Joker had after his US Open Loss in 2010? He came back stronger in 2011 AO Champ...and blew away everyone! same with Murray... 2012 Wimbeldon loss, and came back stronger for US Open over a tough draw and field! with Lendl's help!

It's a brand new day folks...yes, it's a brand new day in Men's Tennis!

I think you're forgetting an important fact: They both had to play in the miserable conditions and trust me Murray doesn't exactly like wind either (09' Indian Wells final versus Nadal ETC.)

Murray simply outplayed Nole in the bigger moments and in my opinion, wanted it more. The tide has changed buddy!

There is no way this guy is a Murray fan, all he's doing is whipping up negative sentiments.
