How many Grand Slam titles will GOATray win in 2020?

[TimHenmanATG]

I think the Australian Open may be too soon, but Wimbledon and the US Open should be shoo-ins.

So, I'm going to guess that he'll win two.

The big one - Tokyo 2020 - is still up in the air. You can never predict which player will GOAT for their country in the biggest sporting tournament on planet Earth, in front of billions of viewers.

If we're honest about it, it was only GOATray's hip problems which allowed the likes of Federer, Nadal, and Djokovic to meaninglessly inflate their Grand Slam tallies over the last few years.

I'm starting to suspect you may not be a Murray fan but the opposite, a Murray detractor trolling him...

Insert Futurama Fry meme here. Not sure if...

He beat an USO semifinalist in straights. People joke around here, but I wouldn't count him out that easily. I hope he wins AO

Lol this Murray hype is hilarious

I hope there will be more threads about his upcoming domination. They're fun.

I wish him a long career, but I am pretty sure he has zero chance of another slam. He's won one in the last 6 years, and didn't have to play Big 3 to win it. Nuff said.

A false flag operation? Nooooo.

I'm just a realist, and acknowledge that GOATray is the most accomplished of the Big 4.

He'd be sitting on a double-figure Grand Slam count, but for his lingering hip issues and the vagaries of fate.

Meanwhile, the likes of Federer, Nadal, and Djokovic are racking up meaningless "triumphs" in an uber-weak era.

Hmmmm...

Another enigma.

Insert another Fry...

Care to add anything constructive to this discussion?

For example, how many Grand Slam titles do you think Sir GOATray will win in 2020?

 

[UnderratedSlam]

I have no clue how many slams Goatray might win, but for sure Murray ain't winning any.

Comment saved. For a smug bump in the not too distant future.

You're on.

Pity we can't make this a money bet.

I'll offer you 10 shillings, a crate of Scrumpy Jack, and a night with my imaginary wife.

I'll take your real wife instead.

I'm a risk taker. (Like you with tennis betting.)

Six easily.

Six easily.

He'll win Basel and Halle too???

Raonic in 2016 was no small test. He had Murray on the ropes at AO playing through a back injury. He also beat Federer in 5 in the SF, which is no joke (Fed's fall didn't seem to bother him in that one match, IIRC it got bad after Wimbledon.)

If Murray stayed healthy, he is sitting at 5+ slams, and someone, if not multiple of the big 3 is sitting on a number less then they have now.

I am pretty sure an uninjured RF would have beaten Raonic, and then Murray.

The Scot basically vultured his 3rd slam. Which is OK, coz he always had an uphill battle in slams.
