    ...and nothing but that? I'd say so in Womens Tennis, but in a game dominated by serving, 1-6 is being creamed, as is 2-6.

      I define it as being beaten soundly, which is why I included those matches were he started well and then faded into obscurity once the match progressed.

      If you're only counting straight sets, then he's been creamed 6-2 6-1 by Wawrinka and 7-6 6-4 against Berdych this year.

          So, thus far we have had a British man winning Wimbledon, the British Lions winning the Test series against the Aussies, a British guy leading the Tour de France, and England looking like retaining the Ashes(early days I know, but I am confident!).
          Not been a bad year so far..............and of course I might also mention that Celtic did the Double, and mightiest of all,
          Rangers won the fourth tier league in Scotland too.

              I think this is it. I doubt he can win more grand slams or dominate tennis like Nadal or Federer.

                He admitted he wasn't super motivated. I very much doubt he's another Federer or Nadal but no reason he can't win a few more. You have to remember Nadal and Federer are unusual even by "Tennis Legend" standards - look at Djokovic, he's amazing but is very unlikely to win that number of slams either.

                I think Murray should be aiming for a career Grand Slam, that is an amazing achievement.

                  I think he will be more fired up at the Aus open - I can see him getting to the semis at least and possibly going on to win it.
