Even more impressive considering he's up against 3 of the greatest players of the Open era, or any era for that matter. And yet doesn't look out of his depth at all when he comes up against them. He was very unlucky to lose to Djokovic in the Aussie Open this year. Not much of a cycling expert, but does Bradley Wiggins have the same level of competition i.e. 3 all time greats?
contador could be up there but of course he was not in the tour de france this year. He beat what was in front of him, im a huge cycling fan but i was actually under impressed with wiggins this year. Yeah he won but what a fudge boring tour it was.
Not sure who i would give it to this year, maybe ennis she was under a hell of a lot of pressure.
My lad was loving watching the tennis and murray is his favourite, as a child who does not want to follow football im just glad he has a sporting hero so for that im grateful to Murray and wish him all the best.
PS anyone got any tips on getting tickets for the tennis at the 02 in December, being trying to get them for the lad for a couple of years, he is 10(where does the time go) and i think the right age to start taking to tournaments, want to try getting tickets for wimbledon, tried last year but got nothing.
cav needs to sort himself the fudge out and sharpish, the way Sagan is improvining if cav does not choice the right team net yeaar he will throw away his legacy. Needs to forget about the classics and make sure he has a team that can get him 5 stages in the tour and the points jersey back.People like Murray and Cav are a breath of fresh air in British sports. To often we saddle ourselves with the "its not the winning that counts its the taking part" and we are always known as the graceful losers. Yet in those two we have 2 competitive, ambitious, tarts who a lot of British sportsmen can learn from in terms of introspection, placing the responsibility on ones own shouder's and having the ambition to seek further perfection.
Thy are for sale on ticket master?? I've got 4 tickets no problem. 7th November
Yeah Ennis was definitely under huge pressure. She was the poster girl for the Olympics in Great Britian, and she ended up winning the heptathlon quite easily. The way she stormed the 800m was hugely impressive considering she didn't even need to win the race.
Try ticketmaster for tickets for tennis at the 02. Tickets are still available.
Wimbledon is a different kettle of fish, very hard to get tickets. They release some on ticketmaster every day for the next day's play. I got some tickets the first year they started doing it, but people have obviously cottoned on now so it's very hard to get them thru that avenue. I used to get them through my old tennis club, but I quit a couple of years ago. There's always the public ballot, but that'a a lottery. You could always queue.

Needs to try to get the points jersey in the Giro missing by only a point this year. Then the following season depending on the layout for the vuelta going for it in that. To be someone to win the points in the 3 grand tours would be special.
Then hopefully in a few years time the worlds will have a flatish course again and he can try to be a double world champ, next year is in Florence and the year after the already said will be in Barcelona. Hopefully it will come like suggested to Britain in 2015 and he can go for it before concentrating on the Olympics the following year.
Cav is the most talented british sportsman i ever seen and i follow most sports but he is in danger of throwing it away.
Enough about that, this thread is about Murray and to come back from losing Wimbledon and to win how he did took balls, total respect to him. Massive massive achievement should get lots of credits, unlike most scots who just get tax credits.

Scots on tribute more to the exchequer than they receive. Apparently!!
