Do you think winkle you could leave this thread alone, just this one, from your only obsession. There are so many other threads you feel are relevant to your sole concern in life.

Oh, eases Fed's mind Muzza needs a line shout Someone to call OUT! His mama said, "You can't hurry, love No, you'll just have to wait" She said, "Slams don't come easy But it's a game when you give breaks No Grand Slams Murray (love) No, you'll just have to wait Just don't miss the base line No matter how long it takes How many heartaches must he stand Before he finds the slam to let him smile again Right now the only thing that keeps him hanging on Is his super serve, oh, even that has gone But remember mama said, "You can't hurry, love No, you'll just have to wait" She said, "Slams don't come easy But it's a game when you give breaks How long must he wait How much more must he take Being trophiless Will cause his heart, heart to break And Federer, beats him up 3-1 He grows impatient for a win, at Wimbledon But when he feels that he, he can't go on He gets precious support, from Betfair's Journeyman And remember mama said, "You can't hurry, love No, you'll just have to wait" She said, "Slams don't come easy But it's a game when you give breaks No Grand Slams Murray (love) No, you'll just have to wait Just don't miss the base line No matter how long it takes |

could very well still be NIL this time next year really
has not done well at USO since making the final in 2008 and I doubt entirely he can win this year extremely unlikely to ever win the French so that leaves the Oz where he has made two finals and Wimby where he's made 1 yes so not expecting the thread to close in the next 12 months really |

In the past the insane pressure that is heaped on Murray at Wimbledon (the Fred Perry and Bunny Austin ghosts etc) have menat he wasn't best prepared for the US open, but I think that this is where Lendl can really earn his money.
After all Murray played some great stuff at Wimbledon and if Ivan can make sure he keeps the momentum throughout the Olympics and onto Flushing Meadow that might be the rusty key that opens the box of dreams. |
|
By:
the key is raising performance, or even just maintaining, at the crucial moments in the big match
that means, by sheer will, converting one of the two break points at 4-4 or holding serve from 30-0 up had he done that and won that set this thread would read ONE in all probability it's in his mind where the barriers lie else he would not drop his first serve percentage so much |

You can't win these points by sheer will. The Swiss bloke on the other side of the net is a factor as well |

nadal does it lots of times
it's about creating a state within your mind, relaxing, visualising, producing your very best when it is most needed murray can't do that - he tightens up and under performs. Also did it in the SF vs Djoko at the Oz Open, had break points at 2-3 in the 4th set and could not convert it is a pattern of behaviour that has persisted for a long time and is the real reason he has failed so often of course, no one has to believe or agree with me but I wrote this same argument nearly 5 years ago on both the old BBC tennis forum and Andy Murrays own forum - that this pattern would continue And I still predict that it will unless he manages to face a player of lower calibre in a slam final you probably think this is just mumbo jumbo and that's fair enough if you do but for me it explains it perfectly or indeed he could just be facing superior players (that he has beaten in other matches) |

Like reading an Andy Gray analysis Total in running is NIL |

By:
I still predict that he will continue to fail in the big matches, as I did in 2009, and he will remain slamless

By:
judorick - this tightening up thing is exactly right. I have a theory that he may win one late on in his career though.
A number of British tennis players had remarkable purple patches once they turned 30; John Lloyd and Jeremy Bates being a couple. (I do not, for a minute by the way, put them any where near Murray's class in case journeyman comes after me). I suspect it was because they loosened up, enjoyed their tenis a bit more and let the racket fly with a bit more fun about them. I am certain Murray's problem is that he gets tight when it matters. Growing older might help that, perhaps a marriage or a child as well to add perspective. Tennis is at the end of the day, a game. And a bit more distance from his mum would be good - I am certain she is a hindrance. Oh, and the answer currently is: 0 |

Arise, oh People, your splendid sword
That strikes with sparkles of God, There is no middle ground between free or slave And an abyss divides the two. In the gentle breezes the Hymn resounds, Repeating with triumphal echo: For the free, renowned glory! For the Fatherland, immortal laur-NIL! |

the final is best out of 5 sets so Andy can forget about that as well
