to be honest i dont think he will ever win a grand slam
Do you even watch tennis!!! The guy is class and will win Grand Slams without a doubt.
the only reason why i said it is because although murray is a class act not only does he have better opponents to beat (nadal and feds) but he has this british mentality where we always seem to bottle it when it comes to the major events. hope i am proved wrong tho. i just think he blew his chance in the french open when nadal was knocked out. i could just tell that murray wouldnt progress.
Sorry but i think you're post is wrong on many levels.
Firstly Nadal's knees are only going to get worse, he plays the game in a ridiculously physical manner and so he will struggle to stay fit in the coming years, in my opinion.
Federer although still a brilliant player, is no doubt in decline now, he can still win Grand Slams, he'll probably win this one but he's not the all dominating force that he used to be. Murray has beaten him regularly over the past year.
Murray does not have a 'typical British' mentality, he has the mentality of a winner, which the British tennis fans have yet to fully embrace, they love the plucky Brit they can get behind in his ulitmately doomed failure to achieve anything, Murray mentally is the total opposite to Henman. Murray has a big match mentality and he'll show it soon.
In the French Open the draw opened nicely for him, but he was never one of the front-runners for the title, he's still played very few matches on clay compared to the other top players on tour, he will only get better on it but it'll always be his weakest surface.
I'm 95% sure he will win at the very least 1 Grand Slam in his career and probably a few more than that.
