I have come round to Murray now but the thing that peed me the most was that self satisfied piece of Shyte Salmond in the crowd a truly horrible man
Fred Perry @fredperry 33min
Congratulations @andy_murray on your @Wimbledon victory!

Murray has no control over politicians trying to gain from turning up today, along with all the other media wh*res like Beckham's pouting wife. James Cordon etc etc. Amazing so many of them got lucky in the ballot - I try every year but have never got a ticket in the ballot.
some of us believed!
all those struggles just make it even sweeter
i think i cried for about an hour from after he broke early in the 3rd
was a quivering wreck after he won lol

you go back 20 years ago before tim henman emerged and comedy bookies were quoting a british man winning wimbledon at similar prices to little green men turning up or elvis being seen riding shergar !
yep i remember being over the moon when jeremy bates reached the 2nd week or when chris wilkinson won a match
now we have the champion!!!!!!!!
now we have the champion!!!!!!!!
andy will you be pretendin you have an injury before the french open this year?

Cheers

Even though it is still TWO, I am proud of the way this fred has gone, as it was intended by the orginal poster to remain zero to make a point, but it has not gone according to his plans 
Pleasing to see this is still going.
Just checking the answer.

Looks like TWO, but I'm sure someone will be able to confirm shortly.
3 if you include Olympics (Lendl said Olympics counts)
Anyway Muzzzaaa is currently winning one slam per calendar year so this year he's obviously chosen the US Open

the schedulers got a bit arrogant this year not giving our andy a bye to the final, you can't put a genuine talent like dimi in his quarter. lesson learned for next year
that being said at least he won't get upset by the sight of a scottish flag in this years final
still on 2 more than anyone that has put up a post on here has won
I wonder is it true he's won two more majors than any Englishman has in the last 80 years? Could somebody confirm that for me please.
I think I know what your on about about when you refer to easy scheduling for Andy; its your belief they'd setup 7 English players for him to beat in order for him to retain his Wimbledon championship.
i dare say he can cheer himself up by checking his bank balance and shaggin his misses. $470k for a fortnights work aint bad.
as long as he doesn't get a caught with a semi in the bedroom.

Andy played well just that Federer played better.
BTW English mugs on here slagging him. FFS all I'll say is Tim Henman was the best you lot could offer in 80 years.

'mon jamie bring the cup home.
well half the cup, or one half of a cup or one of two cup's.
no that is still one cup theoretically but if there are 2 of them it is a cup.
'mon jamie bring one of those 2 cups home.
is it cup or is it a plate or some other thing. i have no idea
i remember winning a doubles tournie years ago and it was just one cup and they said you get it for 6 months each. i kept it the whole year. i have no shame.

5th Highest tennis earner of all time, with $40m so not bad so far...
3 
last 10 players to win multiple wimbledon titles - connors, borg, mcenroe, becker, edberg, sampras, federer, nadal, djokovic and murray
not a bad list

No.1 in the world
A bit of an anti-climax with a walkover in the Paris semi-final but well done the laddy.

He lost to The Goffin today though in Abu Dhabi 
, clearly had other matters on his mind

He should just concentrate on the slams from now on - he's got nothing to prove.
I came across a Murray quote recently from 2012 that I'd missed at the time, quite telling.
"I used to think that losing made you more hungry and determined but after my success at the Olympics and the U.S. Open I realise that winning is the biggest motivation."
All the big boys this year are limiting their appearances pretty much to the slams and the Masters 1000's which are compulsory events.
Would be great if he could finally get the Oz Open on his cv, five times a losing finalist there.

used to say...IT'S ALL GRAVY!
I know many disagree, but for me his two Olympic gold medals are at least equal to major wins. Look how much it meant to Federer when he just missed out on a singles gold medal. They are a lot rarer that's for sure, the top players get 16 shots at a grand slam for every one Olympic gold. Same for golf for me, Justin Rose's gold is equal to a major.
Not easy winning a Slam when you're injured. Best British player since Fred Perry - hth.

How can Justin Rose gold equal a major. Half the world's best players are Yanks, only 3 allowed to compete in Olympic golf?
While the field has to get made up with jokers who would never get near competing in a major.

Agreed he is only going to take weeks off now to keep up the charade of being injured 
redbag....you are getting a rep of bringing up lots of old threads....dull ...dull ....dull !
murray was on one leg today. he will win wimbledon again. him & fed are the best grass court players by a distance.
Laid Murray for £7 to win £50. Small amount which I'm happy to lose to see him go through. Although tbf worth doing seriously as he's always way to short in price. Querrey wouldn't of beat a fit (Scottish) Andy Murray yesterday ! (Brithish) Andy Murray would of breezed by him
An Olympic gold in golf can never be the equal of a major.
Why? because of the nature of golf.
eg, in athletics the Olympics is made up of the best runners, those that can run the fastest times, that`s it (although limited to so many per country)
In golf it will not be the best golfers at the Olympics, because there will be 50 or 100 or more golfers equally good or better.
These players will take part in the majors, and that alone, putting aside the history and tradition makes the majors greater.

& 2 Olympic singles golds, which is 2 more than the supposed g.o.a.t. Fed 
If he is to make a full return, Olympics being cancelled could be a blessing, he wouldn't have won this year, but next year he could make it 3 in a row
