Out of curiosity though, do you consider Murray an ATG? I watch a lot of F1 and in light of the last 2 seasons many are saying Vettel isn't an ATG, yet he's vastly more achieved than Murray is in their respective sports. It's like "tiers" in that we won't always have the same definitions and barometers.
I'm certainly no fan of or expert on F1 so I guess I can only accept your comparison where Vettel is concerned. But why don't F1 fans accept Vettel as an ATG? I believe he won 4 world championships which is only 3 less than Schumacher, the title leader?
For me, I'm not so sure he is. Being a distant fourth wheel doesn't exactly scream ATG to me BUT he's been in a mighty era and has maintained an extremely high level for an extremely long time. Or in other words, I feel he's worth more than what his 3 Slams suggest on the surface.
I guess I agree with everything you said here.
