O/T Magic Murray in Madrid

[scobiemacd]

Boooooooooooooo !!!!! He's let the country down big style. I'd be taking that knighthood off him first thing tomorrow when the Palace opens.

His consistency has been fantastic over the past seven or eight years but this a missed opportunity. He'll be gutted.

Murray is getting old, that was the last major tournament before his 30th birthday. Not many guys have won majors in their 30s. If he doesn't win another one this year he probably never will.

Same for Djokovic.

I'm not sure if past tennis eras offer any clear indicators as to how the current era will pan out. Male tennis players used to be 'finished' by their mid twenties, never mind their thirties.

The issue for Murray at the Australian is that he has been in the Final five times and to go out at this stage and in this manner at arguably the peak of his career suggests that his best chance has gone. One would assume that he will still be there or thereabouts next year but it's doubtful that the circumstances will be as favourable.

This was just one of those freak matches where he was playing a guy who was red hot. Zvarev will probably never play another match like this in his life. Murray didn't even play that badly but ultimately a drop in his first serve percentage (something he can usually play his way out of against lower ranked players) probably cost him the match.

Is anybody else suspicious about all the old players getting to the Aussie Open finals?

Why? Margaret Court won the last of her Grand Slams when she was 31; Ken Rosewall was 37 when he reached the Aussie and Wimbledon finals; Andre Agassi was 31 when he last won a Slam and 33 when he last made a final and Pete Samprass won the US at 31.

Murray wins the first set tiebreak against Wawrinka in the French Open Semi-final.

We take this hibbee (unt far too much for granted.
