Whatever Nadal and Djokovic are on, AM needs some it.  Having watched last night's superb final, those two are currently on a level above the rest.

Also having watched the full match all I can say is that I am grateful that Andy was not in the final against either of them. He would have been lacerated

He gets injured every year without fail.

DjokoGOAT really needs to take it easy this Clay season, but as he's too obsessed with being #1 he's only going one way.

So?  You're point is?  They're both still streets ahead of Andy right now.  This really annoys me.  To try to take away from these players the achievements they have, is both childish and churlish.  We're all Andy fans, and gutted that he doesn't appear to be performing as we'd hope.  However, throwing pelters at those more successful is pretty sad, and makes you come off as being a *****, to be blunt...

It's churlish to dismiss these achievements in 6 months time if they fail at the USO, but that's what people will do.

It's not churlish, Lurking, it's about being realistic when a guy appears 3 times in a slam final and fails to deliver.  I don't like this any better than you, but Djok, Nadal etc. have proven they are up there.  This is a fact, and one you cannot dispute.

Then Murray's right, he has zilch to gain by playing Tennis right now.

If a result doesn't change your opinion why is it used to back up your opinion?

Totally.  This wasn't what you were saying before.  Of course he has the right to bow out.  But his results are nowhere near that of Djok or Nadal.  That was my point.
