I'll bet he makes you Scots proud, as well as the rest of us Brits. That ranks among the truly great sporting comebacks. Well done Andy!

Interesting though, the guy he plays next also played 5 sets last round, and is nearly as old - 34 years old.

Still not had as hard a time as Murray's two matches for sure.

I fancy Murray to beat the Spaniard. He looks to be to be in great form and 12/1 about 3-0 could be the value!

He just won a 5 hour plus game at 36, with a metal hip, after been told 4 years ago he wouldn't play again. Nothing to do with money all for the love of the sport.

If he does lots of Charity devoted stuff good on him.  If he;s a great family man extra good on him.  I'm not knocking the guy for anything he does or has done I just don't worship at his feet!

I don't hero worship him either but as sporting come backs go, it has to be up there in the top 10 ever, for pure guts, effort and heart,
Imo he deserved to roar as much as he wants.

Question for you about Andy Murray.
Why did he come out in public as yes for independence then back track hurriedly and shamefully when the reaction and bile started to come and he saw his popularity look at risk and possible career damage?
Top class tennis player he is and no  more.
Report the dealer • January 21, 2023 12:36 PM GMT
I haven't read anything about his stance on independence, his demeanour on court alienates him from many as does the negative press from off the cuff remarks. He does a huge amount for charity and for tennis imo he is far more than a top class tennis player, his whole family deserves loads of credit.

Top notch sportsman , he played in the greatest stretch of tennis in history when Novak , Rafa and Federer were in their pomp , unlucky to born when he was in some ways as 15 years either side he'd have won 10 grand slams , he really was that good in his prime.

Irrelevant whether you like him or not but hard not to accept his comeback as nothing short of remarkable.


Good luck guys  Happy

His "comeback" would be remarkable if he actually won something of merit and that's never going to happen..
He;s a big. bubbling in public, attention seeking bairn for me.
Let's get things into a sporting achievement perspective.
Lester Piggott's comeback  was remarkable.
Muhammad Ali's comeback was remarkable.
Tiger Woods's comeback was astonishing.
And I am sure that dozens of mega-earning athletes and sportsman do great things for charity.

I'm English, but have nothing but respect for what Andy Murray achieved.

In a hugely competitive sport, coming from a country that barely played it (Scotland), against a worldwide pool of massive talent. In an era that was possibly the greatest will ever be for great players. Yet still took titles at the highest level in the game.

Incidentally, as a child was almost killed by a the madman at Dunblane - many would have left that with trauma.

Has a great wit and self-deprecation if you read things he's said or posted too - very humble but a true great sportsman and fighter.

I don;t look but you can;t escape some of it.  A grown man roaring like a bull as if he has just conquered the unconquerable is "newsworthy" apparently.
And I don;t hate the female jockey.  I do despise her however and that is something completely different.
Good luck to Mr Murray - I wish him well.  If only he could give up this look at me I;m great stuff I might be able to take to him.
Who released news of all his charity work please?

No response to that one.  Did Saint Andrew leak it to the media I wonder?  Odds on he did in my book.

Can I pay less tax if I donate to charity.

You can pay less income tax by deducting the value of your donation from your overall taxable income.
