Andy Murray: "Best tennis is ahead of me"

Nole was burned out for a couple seasons after near perfect season in 2011! He barely held onto #1, releasing it for a while to Nadal in 2013, but has had huge lead to stay in front of all comers for the foreseeable future! Even if Murray took USO, he'd need a near collapse for Nole to drop close to anyone in the point's race! :rolleyes: :p ;)
As Federer said at the end of 2011 (one of his mind games), it's easier to become No1 than to protect your spot as best in the world. Novak was inexperienced as being best of them all, Roger and Rafa were still good, and Novak didn't know what to concentrate on.
 
So this just confirms what we always knew based on his on-court behaviour: this Murray is still baby Murray.

Weak era confirmed.

Lets see if he can beat Novak first to win something.

He doesn't necessarily have to beat Djokovic to become the new #1 though. He has to win the Paris title with Djokovic failing to get to the final or he has to get to the final with Djokovic losing in the QF or earlier I believe? The truth is though, I think Djokovic will probably keep his #1 spot and do well in Paris. Let's see.
 
I think his best tennis was 4 years ago. Not ahead of him. He may feast on some of this crappy era if Nole goes down but he doesn't have to play his best tennis to do that
 
The Gong is one of man’s most powerful and oldest transformational and therapeutic instruments. It has been used for ritual, ceremony, prayer, and meditation since the Bronze Age. While its sound is relaxing and calming, centering and energizing, transforming and healing, gongs have been used in yoga, sound meditation, and vibrational therapy from the distant past to present.

He will need to harness the benefits of the gong more effectively if he's to play his best tennis.

Hmmm

:cool:
 
Ahhhh, the gloating begins! :rolleyes: :p ;)
And likely to continue as Murray says "best tennis is ahead of me" and:
"It's required from a player to come out on the court in these particular occasions, playing top guys, to come out with his top game," Djokovic said. "I wasn't closest to that. There was no serious chance for me to win today's match. From the very beginning, we could see that."
 
I'm very happy for Andy Murray and for British Tennis.

Yeah, it only took 80 years for the men and 40 years since Wade to make tennis big in England; sans Davis Cup & the Olympics I guess! Talk about overachievement! That's a lot in just the last 5-6 years! Unfortunately after Murray exits, I see most times of them being "all at sea;" sorta like the USA right now! :rolleyes: :p ;)

Great to see Murray staying motivated as the success floods in. He is not getting complacent. It will be interesting to see how far he can take this..............

AO 2017 has the potential to be one of the best in years - Murray at his absolute best, a rejuvenated Federer, Nadal back in the conversation, Del Potro, Nishikori, Cilic and also Wawrinka hopefully playing well.

My eyes must be playing tricks on me or you just totally nixed Djokovic out of the conversation! Did he retire and I just didn't hear about it? :rolleyes: :p ;)

I think he will do well in Rome and Monte Carlo (l to Nadal in both finals) and I also think he will make the final in Cincy and USO. Overall he will be solid but not like 2015 and 2016 as he has too many things off court to deal with that will impact his game massively.
 
It's Djokovic who has something to prove right now, not Murray.

I meant Murray has to prove he can beat djokovic at a slam again. I can't remember how many slam encounters they have had since wimbledon 2013 but they are atleast a handfull.
 
Yep. Murray has been in pretty much every final since the start of the clay season, where as Novak failed more often than not, especially post-RG.

Murray is the man right now. He is the top dog. The rest are chasing him.

Yes, he is the man right now. But his reign at #1 won't last as long if he keeps on losing GS matches to Djokovic. Otherwise the one thing that could save him is that Djokovic goes out early. That's why I'm saying it's his next mission. If he can beat him, then we can seriously start believing that Andy's #1 place will last a while.

It could still last even without beating Novak. Novak has a lot of point to defend early on: Doha, AO, IW, Miami. Murray can mostly add points before the clay season: Doha, IW, Miami. If he defends his AO final and gains some points at these 3 events, he can remain no.1 at least until the clay season.
 
OP you're suppose to put some sort of made up implication in your title for these threads like "Andy Murray's veiled threat to his rivals"" or "Andy Murray pushes over small child"
I am thinking though ,,, that the Back injury that Andy maybe wasn't that serious to begin with............. because all the Back surgeries I have seen in the past,,,,,,,,ONLY 50 % of it comes out successful...... and even that 50 % of success stories, you don't really get 100 % of your back recovered.... and this Andy back surgery seem to have make Andy like 120 % better than before.................... This is really amazing to me........and Weird at the same time...

What kind of back surgery did Andy really have and was it really that serious to begin with ??????????

"A Murray insider described his chances of playing in Greenwich as "touch and go". Although the surgery will be "non-invasive", according to a source"

Non invasive, he got a massage.

Massage table probably had holes on both ends, incase you wanna lay the in other direction, so they say
