sassaaaa 11,406 Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 Stayed off the thread in case i jinxed him. Devastating form all through the tournament , nobody would live with him. Wasted two years through injury , but he's back big time. On that form no reason he can't take at least one other slam this year. eejay the dj 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still decent value..... I can see Murray winning Wimbledon but beating Nadal to do it. Queens is going to be good too this year. Realistically I think Murray would have given Rafa more of a game than Stan, his defence on clay is better. born a blue nose, Inigo, Band of Brothers and 1 other 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieD 18,941 Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 Nadal will challenge at Wimbledon, he is moving so much better. Either that or he gets horsed by some journeyman or young gun in the first week. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

the goal machine 7,802 Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 Nadal will destroy Murray if he's anywhere near his best. Nadal's just a bad match-up for him. sassaaaa 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree hence why I also took Murray at 5-2 to cover myself :) Should be pretty exciting though........ Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
B1872 20,718 Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 Will be interesting to see the draw as Djokovic is now number 3 in the world. Murray could potentially have to beat Federer in the quarters, Djokovic in the semi and Nadal in the final. ? Rangers_no1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a massive Murray fan but I just think guys like Federer and Nadal have something over Andy when it really matters.

Creampuff 22,628 Posted June 11, 2017 Author Share Posted June 11, 2017 That's probably about as dominant as a slam victory can get. Nadal never looked in trouble in a set, never mind a match. B1872 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
