Apart from Djokovic over all,who has played better than Murray this year?cos i sure like to know?

Murray is having one of his best starts of the season, and has had some very good results. Credit for that.

But it does not mean this Big 4 thing is a legitimate expression. He has not been able to challenge the Big 3 in a long time, and has only been able to do so occasionally in the past. Just not good enough to be placed in the same group.

Come Clay,i'm sure Nadal will be the man to beat again.But come Wimby i'd give Andy as good chance as any in the big 4.ps this match is not over yet 2.

What does that have to do with it? The Big 3 is about the cumulative achievements and stature of the constituents. Nothing to do with the ATP Race..

Each year tennis players need the ranking points,the race tells us who's doing what.;)

Djokovic jinks the ball back just over the net and Murray has no idea what to do with it. time and time again.

Andy Murray; Big Three + One, the Black Sheep, the Fourth Man, the Outsider.

That kind of sums it up. He's very good, but not up there.

I find it extraordinary that a player of Novak's stature hasn't sorted out his overhead problems yet. He's almost WTA like on that shot

It's the sun I think. He has been fine with that shot for a good while now.

This is simply one of those extraordinarily bad days... sun and wind adding to his improving but still suspect overhead.

Hmmm.. I agree the sun is a problem today. But he's really average on that shot. I always have doubts when he's doing it. Andy and Roger are excellent at it, and Rafa is just a stone cold killa

Novak's level is mediocre. I would not be surprised to see Murray take the second, maybe even the third at this point.

Into the decider. Felt like Murray was having the upperhand, well deserved. Hope Novak can turn this around.
