2 actually

and Like it matters? its still tennis and the same two players.

"you have a problem with the oddsmakers?
they must have been on drugs right?

or could it be that murray did indeed have a shot?"


Actually they probably gave him good odds to make more money off English bettors since it's Wimbledon and they would all bet on Murray. It's the same as they give England good odds on every WC while their results have been hilarious for the past.. 50 years? :rofl:

He never had any real chance in this match, as I predicted.

You are seriously going to suggest I am new when you have little to no knowledge of basic odds and probability?

Favorite =/= other guy has no shot

Who's talking about odds and propability? I really don't mind statistics here.. I just follow what I see and make predictions based on my tennis knowledge. And I was right again.

If you followed tennis at all you would've known it was extremely unlikey for Murray to win here

Anyone who really thought Murray had any chance at winning this or Wimbledon is just being silly.. I said this from the start

By the way.. do any of you watch Wimbledon on BBC? The commentary of Björn Borg is so great .. it sounds just like Arnold Schwarzenegger

'Thats another good thing about Nadal.. once he smells da blood, he wants da meat'  :lol:


he got further than federer so fuck off


he WILL win a grand slam in the next few years hes too good not to

He's good, but unlucky for him there are guys that are just better. Unless he improves there will always be a Nadal / Djoko / Federer(short term) to keep him from the win.

Even the british commentator: 'I think Murray is a very talented player.. but I think there are some other guys that are just even more talented at this moment'

What's the point of using Federer's loss to this discussion? That would almost make me not even take your post seriously, since Roger has been the best player in the world for like 4 years in a row and won the tournament so many times. Murray and Federer are in totally different situations as Roger has nothing left to prove and is nearing the end of his career, while Murray hasn't won any major tournaments yet and is or should be at the prime of his career now. I'm not going to switch to Nadal as my favourite player when he's more likely to win something either, and I still think Roger is the best player at Wimbledon, lately he has been just a bit inconsistent. But as long as he plays I will be a fan.

Murray will never win a grand slam. As Novak and Nadal just continue to get better, Murray is stalterd at the same class. Still not even as classy as Federer which the other 2 has surpassed. Won't be too long before my boy Bernard is up there winning grand slams but!
