Sir Andy Murray ???????

[Newtown]

Is this a joke ??

He finally makes No 1 after a million years on tour and he gets a Knighthood :crazy

Gee what does Navratilova ,Graf ,Serena Williams ,Sampras ,Borg , Djokovic , Federer get for multiple years on top ??

He would be my most loathed sports stars along with Lewis Hamilton :brick:

Navratilova ,Graf ,Serena Williams ,Sampras ,Borg , Djokovic , Federer I am sure were well rewarded with the money they made out of tennis for their multiple years on top. Talking about loathed tennis stars I think Australia's top two male tennis players are well in that race.

And so has Murray Newtown , my argument is you need to have more than one good season and at least wait until he has retired

I hope every player he faces sticks the "Sir Andy" in his face

In the words of my old coach Hap,"absolutely nothing wrong with having some age and experience in your team" Flip is our man ….champion ...

 

[Cultured_Bogan]

Not a fan myself, but in his defence he did witness 16 of his classmates get massacred by gunmen as a 6 year old. That has to be a big reason for his miserable disposition.

Used to think of him as a miserable beggar until I heard this. More than enough a reason to be cagey.

Andy = 1 Knighthood…Roger will be kicking the Dirt...While chomping on multiple Golden Bagels..**

**Geo you have way too much time to waste!!!!**

 

[Geo]

Holidays,,plus only takes About (0.53 seconds) with the assistance of google and copy/paste to make happy look silly

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_career_achievements_by_Roger_Federer

 

[Fade_To_Black]

There is 1 thing you forgot to add to Federer's list of awards Geo…..he won a cow or two as well for winning a tournament!
What a weird thing to present someone with.

 

[happy_tiger]

Welcome back Sir Roger

What odds would you have got at the start of the Australian Open if you had picked a Serena v Venus Williams final and a Federer v Nadal final

Talk about turning the clock back

Good to see in my opinion , love to see Venus and Roger win , Venus has battled back from auto immune disease to get back to here and Roger is just Roger

 

[palms]

So what do you think the odds would be on Roger winning the Stefan Edberg Sportsmanship Award for the 13th straight year?

 

[Geo]

No way will I be watching the Williams Brothers final..

 

[happy_tiger]

So what do you think the odds would be on Roger winning the Stefan Edberg Sportsmanship Award for the 13th straight year?

He's got it until he retires I'd reckon , even in his last tournament he advised his opposition player to check a call because he thought they had it wrong which went against Roger

True class act , arguably the world's best and fairest athlete

 

[happy_tiger]

Arise "Sir Roger"

Wonderful final , thought Nadal was probably more consistent , but Federer was magic in that last set

Nadal should be spitting at the line call which awarded Fed a first serve in the last game

 

[Geo]

Wrong thread…

 

[happy_tiger]

Wrong thread…

Maybe

Pretty sure I saw our talisman / saviour Harry T at the match tonight ….

Oh and I told you before Roger can never be Sir…

Being Swiss he is King Roger..
