FWIW I'm sticking big money on Murray. Honestly think that now Fed is out this year is his best chance to win...

i really dont think he has it in him, how can he compete against the big guns in a major, never taken a set yet, i think quite probablly him or fed will never win another GS

hope im wrong on both counts, murray winning a slam would do wonders for tennis here and id obviously love to see fed win again.

What's the head to head on Murray Nadal?

4-2 in grand slams (although one win was because of nadal retiring due to an injury)

11-4 on the atp tour

Thanks Man.

Looking forward to it. Been a while since i've properly sat through wimbledon like this.

Hoping Murray beats Nadal though as the anticipation would be epic afterwards.

Murray was 2 sets up and 3-0 in the third, so he would have won anyway.

I don't get all the Murray hate still, granted he was an arrogant prick as a teenager, but he's not like that anymore and still the best player Britain has had in the Open era.

I don't dislike him, I just have no affinity towards being British and he's Scottish.
