Wimbledon 2025

Murray beats some Chinese chappy to reach the last 16 of the Zhuhai Championships.

He is seeded 7th and plays some Russian in the next round that I've never heard of so, hopefully, a decent chance to get to the last 8.

What's your win/loss prediction record?

With just St Mirren, you don't need to count any other clubs you've supported.

And more money in the bank. I'm sure he'll stop when it starts costing him to play.

It's costing him his dignity and reputation right now.

His reputation will only ever be “Grand Slam Champion, “ex-World Number One, “Davis Cup Winner”, “multiple ATP Winner” and a guy who had the guts, determination and ability to get back into the World Top 50 after massive surgery to have a replacement metal hip……..he’ll know when it’s right to retire, he’s earned that right, and won’t give the two smallest of wee f**k’s what negative naysayers slaver.

Murray loses again, albeit in the longest match in this particulars tournaments history.

I'm starting to feel the end is nigh, I see no point in playing if your getting pumped time after time by no marks.

Oh, I  shoukd add the young guy that beat Murray dispatched Rublev yesterday in straight sets so maybe he's not the duffer I thought.  🙄

Aye, today's victory was against a player currently 120th in the world, but, again, a win's a win. 

Fingers crossed he's got something left and can get a 2nd win, his 3rd this year.

Shapovalov was ranked 10th in the world six months ago before getting injured, but has now recovered and is making his way back again, so I think it is a bit much to imply he is a complete numpty.

Murry also said in his interview after the match : I probably don't have too long left but I'll do as best as I can these last few months," .

I guess he has just about had enough.......

Only a numpty wouldn't have known that. 😉

Think most folk would have guessed his time was nearing an end. Wouldn't be surprised if he didn't play on the clay to try and finish with a few wins at Wimbledon before retiring.

I never implied anything. 

His current ranking is all that matters.

I've,  in the past, praised Shapovla after seeing him at Queens so I'm well aware how decent he WAS, but that was then

Indeed as he was ranked, briefly, 10th in Sept 2020, not 6 months ago, numpty.
