    A credit to Scotland.
    What an amazing attitude and desire to win.
    Always enjoyed his interviews even if it took the guffs 10 years to suss out he was actually really funny and not just a dour Scot with no personality.
    Looks like his will to get back to the top was ultimately his undoing.

    Well said Dod. The manic end to 2016 was very impressive but potentially could have knocked a couple of years off his career. But he himself says his hip has always been an issue so it probably wold have ended up like this anyway.

    Some of the opinions about him or his mother on here are pretty ill informed tbh

    Not a surprise, he's been hirpling aboot like an auld mannie for a while now.

    Probably should have won more tournaments, only winning 3 out of 11 grand slam finals was disappointing.

    Gutted.

    As SFA said, a joy to watch him come through the ranks and be as successful as he was. Echo the sentiments that he should won more slams. His finest hour for me was the 2012 US Open, having blown a two set lead, he got back on it and blew Djokovic away in the final set.

    Aye, well said. He has a great sense of humour. Ultimate professional sportsman in a world not familiar to Scots.

    Heart of the sleeve hero.

    Maybe would have won more grand slams if he took whatever Federer is on.

    A 37 year old shouldn’t be able to play at the level he manages to play at.

    Good point, and Federer isn't the only druggie in tennis.

    Murray 2 sets down to Bautista Agut in what could be his last game. I reckon he will try and limp on to Wimbledon but it could be all over within the hour
