James Blake on the Young Guns

[Fastgrass]

Has Andy retired? Can we wait until he does before we decide his place in the history of tennis? I think he could win 4-6 slams but we'll have to wait and see. I'm just enjoying the journey so far.

he is not retired but this is blind hope that he will win slam again .
Lot of players like berdych , Stan , gulbis , Delpo , nadal , fed ( God Mode ) have the game to oust Murray at slam .
He doesn't have game to dominante Tennis and specially next year , nadal will be fit ( blood spinning )
its very difficult for him to win slam in presence of fit nadal , remember 2011 he lost to nadal thrice in semis
Also he is 4-0 against nadal in last four GS meetings
I believe that he will retire with two slams.

I think you're grading on too high a curve, Nadal2005RG. You should realize how short the list is of players who have even won 2 Slams. And in this era, which you are proclaiming is full of greats, \

You are entitled to your definition of "great". Rafter for example, was a very good player. So is Murray. Both guys have won 2 slam titles and been in other slam finals. Do I rate Murray ahead of Rafter? Yes. But both are not great. Very good, not great.

Yes Murray is legend of sport but he is surely marked his name in history by winning Wimbledon ,.
Peoples will remember him as a player who ended Wimbledon draught for GB after 77 years.
No on will remember his pushing game and negative attitude .
