Andy Murray is one of the greats of tennis: number 1 in the world, three Grand Slam victories – the Scot has achieved a lot. There are three reasons why, despite his class, he was not more successful in the major tournaments.
Murray off to a strong start in Newport: Andy Murray (35) has been playing with an artificial hip since his comeback after major surgery. At the press conference after his smooth opening win at the ATP tournament in Newport against US boy Sam Querrey (6: 2, 6: 0), Murray looked back on his career.
Short, clear, compact
Hard to crack “Big 3″ in majors: Ironically, he complained that he had to play in the era of Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic and Roger Federer. “Unfortunately, I played at a time when the three guys in front of me are pretty good. Together they have won 63 Grand Slams, so it’s not easy to win tournaments like this,” he said, according to Tennisworldusa. That’s why only three major titles remained for Murray, despite eleven finals.
No regrets about missed titles: The number 52 in the world is still not dissatisfied. “When I was 19, it would have been my dream to win a tournament like Wimbledon and become number 1 in the world and all those things.” Murray’s private life is also going well: he is now a father of four and married.
