I had a little each way bet on Fed, cause he seems to be flying under the radar.  Though its hard to looks past serbinator and Rafa.  Also Murray is looking good on clay, and should've ended serbinator's run the other day, which i'd bet on, but he had match points, and bottled it    I think if he's gonna win a major, he needs to stop switching coaches, and having all these people around him, like his evil looking mother.  He gets too angry with himself when he makes mistakes, and is too tentative when it really matters.  The main thing I blame is the British press.  They make out all our sport stars to be phenom's before they've even achieved anything, then when they fail, they come crashing down on them.  Murray shouldn't give a fuck what they write or think, or worry about his image.

Muhammed Ali or Chris Eubank    I know a lot of people hate Eubank, but he never lost easily, and was a true warrior.  When he got straight up, to knock down Michael Watson, that was unbelievable, just so tragic what Happened to Watson, another warrior    Considering they told him he'd never walk again, and then he goes and complete's the marathon.  And Marciano is another of my favourites, the only underfeated Heavyweight champion in history.  I read the book about him, its brilliant.  He's got all this money hidden still, no one knows where it is.

I cant see past Djokovic or Nadal. Id be surprised to seeFederer win, and I think Murray will get thrashed by Nadal if he even gets as far as the semi. I know Murray looks like he should get to the semi easily, because he is in an easy quarter of the draw, but I think he's too inconsistant on clay, and thats why I dont think he'll evet win the French.

I do agree that he needs to stop changing coaches. A year or so ago, I thought he was a far better prospect than Djokovic, but Djokovic has now left him standing, and with Del Potro returning to fitnessI  can see Murray struggling to win majors. I hope Im wrong, and Id like to think that if Murray stays healthy he can win at least one major.

I like Rafa, I play a bit like him.  Murray is too inconsistant on any surface, but he's given djork and rafa a close game recently.  And he doesn't expect to win the french, could work in his favour.

I think Djokovic has changed his diet or something, thats the difference.  His temperament seems so much better, he was a bit like murray.  I saw him play against Haas at wimbledon 2 years ago, he was useless.  I forgot about Del Potro.  I think if Murray won one, he could go on to win more.

Yes, the first one will be the hardest.

He could end up being another Tiger Tim though    I dunno why they called him a tiger, he was such a pussy.  There's only one Tiger

Yes, I worry that he will be another Timmy, or Colin Montgomerie as well.

Timmy just wasn't good enough to win a major though. There was always just a few players that were too good for him. He could beat most players and maintain a good ranking, but he just couldn't beat Sampras or Federer.

I'm glad monty never won a major, he's a pratt.  He wouldn't give a signature.  I got Martin Kaymer's though, and he's been world number 1

He had his chances, he just bottled it.  He did beat Fed, Fed wasn't really dominating while henman was around.  Henman would just lose to the first decent player he played, like in the quater's or semi's.

That's what I mean. There was always a few players who were too good for Timmy. Some people say he didn't have the bottle to win a major. I think he just wasn't quite good enough.

I liked Monty, but he was such a pratt

I Have some respect for Eubank just for standing up and saying he was only in it for the money.  Honest.
