@Shawn You mean that guy Kyrgios who still hasn't made a masters final or been to the semis of one grand slam? Oh yeah that guy who is still lowly ranked. Just can't wait for his return lol. Last year he skipped the whole clay court season cos he knows without his serve he is nothing. He then said he couldn't wait for the grass court season so he could "do some damage." He won 2 matches from 3 tournaments lmfao. The guy is a first class fucking LOSER!!!!
@@namispondjamispond9282 he didnt skip the clay court season he attended Rome and Madrid and even beat Medvedev. I agree with you though, Kyrgios is an idiot.
The ''anticipation'' thing is overrated.He played way behind the baseline and rarely run around the backhand,on top of that he was very fast.He had more time to react than aggressive players like Federer who took more risks . A guy like mcEnroe had excellent anticipation skills,Murray was more like a dog who retrieved everything.
Andy Murray has retired but now he is back and playing good and I wanna thank tennis tv for providing us with good tennis vids in lockdown makes our quarintine so much better
@@Revolver1981 No he never retired even once, all he did was announce possible retirement plans. Then g e decided to have the 2nd hip resurfacing surgery and take his chances.
Yes, uncanny talent of his is simply marvellous! Even more so is his perfect execution!! Stunning! Andy's skills make his game very different from the others. A type of counter attacks, but unprecedented! Tones of voice of the commentators describe it all!
I sure miss watching Andy scramble-and-win. Watching this and thinking about Andy's irrecoverable injuries that force his retirement, I'm literally crying. That dedication and talent, "only" 3 slams and 1 year-end no. 1 really don't do them justice! There's no "Big 3", it's always been "Big 4" for me.
We missed Murray and Wawrinka highest level,after the big 3,these two impressed the world of tennis with their achivements in their best days for sure.
He was in an era with the three greatest ever players,but he beat them all at times,was in so many slam finals , has achieved so much in his career fantastic to watch one of the best players on the tour
Namispond Jamispond na Murray’s consistently good just not as good as nadal physically or Djokovic mentally. Stan is unplayable when on but his overall career is nothing g compared to even Murray
He was in an era with the three greatest ever players,but he beat them all at times,was in so many slam finals , has achieved so much in his career fantastic to watch
The most impressive part to me is his ability to keep the ball in after exploding to the net from backcourt at mad speed to get to the drop shot from opponent.
After watching this people must agree that he is a special player. Yes he is not at the level of the big 3 because they are more like from a different planet altogether but this guy is more human like other players but he still got the better of the big 3 on multiple occasions and the only one to reach the top of the mountain the world No.1 rank. You got to give him credit for that. Had he played in any other era he would have won many more slams. If he hadn't had that hip injury in 2017 he would have won 3-4 slams easily. He was in his peak when he got that injury. It's a miracle that he is still competing out there with a metal hip. I was never a murray fan but he won me over during all these years. He is a great fighter and a legend of this game. Hopefully he gets some respect from the rival fans too.
The most talented player on defense and it's not even a debate. Only Andy Murray has the natural instinct to play these unbelievable shots consistently. It's always unreal to watch. Sadly though, you ain't gonna win a lot of clutch matches if your greatest weapon by far is counter attacking
I would say that in some shots it is not anticipation but the other players watching him run in a direction, unconsciously throw the ball that way, it is crazy how andy play with their minds
More Murray please! He's the biggest fighter in tennis, to achieve what he did against the other three. Also, he was the only player outside of the other three that had a monumental home GrandSlam mountain to climb. And we Scots are not renowned for playing tennis. Wimbledon 2013 was a Jamaican Bobsleigh moment for us Scots. That last game against Djokovic was the most thrilling, nailbiting experience of our lifes. Therefore, I wouldn't swap that precious summer's day for any of the other three's incredible achievements. 2013 Wimbledon was one of the greatest, most historical moments, in tennis history. For me anyway. th-cam.com/video/Lww-hJ4LdTo/w-d-xo.html
What I loved about Murray defense it he doesn't defend with raw speed or pure strength. He anticipates the ball better than anyone else on the tour. For me, the Nadal get are more phenomenal but it cost more on the body. Sorry for my English I'm french
It's funny, I actually think this video proves the opposite about Murray's "anticipation", despite the title and all the comments. People always say it's an "underrated" aspect of his game, but I would say it's very overrated. I've played tennis competitively for ~20 years, and there isn't a single instance in this video where I see someone reading the game at a level you'd expect from the majority of top 100 professionals. I just see him sprinting to the open court, split step when he has time, one nice fake at the net then cover the other side. I'm not trying to minimize what in this video at all though. It's not his anticipation, but his shotmaking ability on defense that is truly mindblowing in almost every single one of these points. With Murray I always found myself shocked, wondering, "how the hell did he get to that" (6'4 athlete but still one of the best first steps, top speed, and balance ever to grace tennis) or "how the hell did he come up with that shot at full sprint or a pure reflex shot from a defensive position" (his pure tennis talent). Really, watch these points. So many of them are him just sprinting to the open court. What's truly special, and he's in my opinion clearly the best ever at this, is his shotmaking ability when stretched on defense. Djokovic is arguably the better defender overall, not from shotmaking though, but his ridiculous rally tolerance while defending, somehow contorting his body and giving up no ground on the baseline while continuing the rally in situations where every other player would cede an advantage to the opponent.
@@sirjain4408 wow useless now let see when he will again start winning tournaments I would like to see the look on your face when he wins again on the tour I would like to personally write you
Shawn also wonder why federer still whoops ass at 38? Incredible fitness, ergonomical strokes and perfect technique... and why does nadal play so good? Because of his incredible physical strength and champion attitude. You call that acknowledgment of their greatest qualities as phenomenal tennis players and respect.. that is what a real tennis fan has to have
Djokovic has no olympia win...Novak has only onfortunately 4 grandslam win in row....But olympia wins and 4 grandslams win in row is not a important success for the tennis sport. The most important success in tennis history was from tennis god David nalbandian in madrid 2007 when he beat federer, nadal and djokovic in row...
andy murray is better then hewitt,roddick,safin and the legendary david nalbandian...would murray plays in his prime only against against weak players like hewitt, safin,roddick etc..he would have now over 15 grandslams...i mean even when murray was a baby 2008, nobody from this players hewitt,safin etc. could reached the top 4 ranking...
Anandita Arya agassi was the best before federer came...agassi with the age from 29-33 win in the time from 1999-2003 more grandslams then hewitt,safin,roddick and federer all together and he has a 15-8 h2h against safin.hewitt,roddick and federer from 1999-2003AO....

He is. Djokovic said Murray was more talented when they were young
Tennis TV giving us so many great videos today what a blessing
Prime Murray is one of the best ever.
Agreed. I don’t think he gets enough credit just because he doesn’t have the most slams, he had to compete with the 3 best ever.
Pure genius anticipation, his tennis IQ is more brilliant than any other players.
I think that's the most ciritical weapon among his other crafts.

Top two players with best anticipation skills
1. Andy Murray
2. Daniil medvedev
Roger isn't that bad either
Nalbandian had magical anticipation skills, him an Murray are the GOATS imo
There is perhaps no one in current lot who can match his TENNIS IQ.
It's when you look at the scores and he's rinsing peak Djokovic on a hard court that you remember how good Andy Murray was!
