WHAY ALWAYS MURRAY LOST

WOT NO MURRAY!

So who is the most under rated tennis player in the­ world today? and who is the biggest under achiever at­ major tournaments, i am kinda thinking becker or­ aggassi, thinking back what great players we had back­ then a wealth in depth, you just never really knew who­ was going to win, i feel tennis will loose someone very­ special when feds retires.

It seems to me that Andy's game has got worse and­ worse since Lendl came on the scene. His self-belief­ seems totally eroded.

I don´t like Murray but I´m really sorry that he lost..­ but not because of him, but because of Lendl!! Iceman­ rocks!!!

@ KARL: Your comment is an insult to all players at­ Queens.

Andy plays some of his best tennis at Queens he says..­ good work! A bye in the first round and bye in the­ second!

@ Pauline Smith: Have to agree with your post.­ Something is amiss. I know the hate-brigade will have­ their fun but seriously, he WAS playing much better­ this time last year. Lendl was a good player in his­ time - but maybe his old-fashioned style is not right­ for the current game? He fared better under different­ coaches or even on his own! Since taking Lendl on, all­ we've seen is a slightly better forehand - but a­ rather subdued approach. A lot of people criticised­ Andy for his outbursts, but it's as though he is­ not able to fire himself when he's restricting his­ emotions this much. Back to the drawing-board.....

i play tennis and with all due respect to get fire in­ your heart dosent mean throwing a racket for 1...nor­ does it mean trying to get points replayed after­ clearly not having a chance but oops because i stood on­ the linemans toe HE BELIEVES HE SHOULD AV THAT REPLAYED­ he doesnt care about you so get ure tongue out of his­ haggis...do you remember the french last year wen the­ kid run on the court wen his oppanant had a smash at­ the net and the crowd berrated the kid to the point he­ nearly cried did murray care one bit about­ him,,,instead no he was like were playin that point­ again...he could of stopped that kid gettin a­ blasting,,,he clearly was gunna lose the point...but­ noooo not ure sporting andy murray

First of all, purely in the interest of rising above­ all those who will have a field day at Murray's­ expense, well done to Mahut for playing well. I'm­ sick to the back teeth of all the references to the­ Mahut/Isner match from two years ago, but credit where­ it is due, he did deserve the win today. As for Murray,­ I don't know, he never seemed to get up for it­ today. To me he looked flat almost throughout, which is­ unlike him. People go on and on about Murray berating­ himself in matches, but I can't help thinking that­ he is a player who needs a bit of that to fire him up.­ I do think he needs to get a grip on the tendency to­ self-commentate (although he does it a whole lot better­ than some who are paid to do it), because it can become­ a negative thing for him, but I just think he needs a­ bit of fire in him, and it wasn't there today. I­ also wonder about how fit Murray is, and I mean no­ disrespect to Mahut when I say that. At no point did­ Andy touch his back, in fact I thought he was trying­ not to, but I just wonder if all is not quite as it­ should be. It's funny, had Murray won Queen's­ the Murray bashers would say it is a 'small'­ tournament, so insignificant. Now he is out they'll­ say Queen's is highly important. The amount of­ commentary we will now get from 'experts' about­ Murray's preparation for Wimbledon being in­ 'ruins' or 'tatters' is about to get­ very boring.

murray's out! ...thank you God

have to say mahut is a excellent grass court player his­ favorite surface!

Poor Andy is getting TOO OLD TO WIN A MAJOR....At 25­ ...same age as Andy, Borg Retired and McEnroe Won HIS­ LAST GRAND SLAM

Well done to Mahut. He is an under-rated player and­ deserved to win today. No doubt the Murray-bashing­ brigade will have a field-day - as they really have­ nothing else to do.

have to say theres a lot in murrays entourage at­ queens! i mean the coach fair enough! hes a good­ player but not in the class of nadal federer and novak­ but hey you never know in the big tournaments.

Gosh people are predictable. Murray has won Queen's­ twice in the last three years. No one is going to tell­ me that each time he has just been lucky and been the­ best of a bad lot. How insulting to Murray and everyone­ else. Mind you, it is the time of year when Murray­ bashing, from the press, the public and even people in­ the sport becomes a national pastime, all because he­ isn't a Home Counties posh kid. but a fine tennis­ player who wants to be the best he can be. My only­ question is why Rob Curling chose to bring attention to­ Tommy Haas's silly remarks about Murray's back­ injury at the French at the beginning of the broadcast­ this afternoon. I'm sure Haas having a go has got­ Murray quaking in his trainers.......not.

The weak field is down to the governments tax rules..­ remember at this time last year, nadal was saying it­ costs more to come and play at Queens (paying so much­ in tax) than he can make, even if he wins the­ tournament... The players are not that bad­ though.... "Andy Murray (4), Tsonga (5), Janko­ Tipsarevic (8), Juan Martin Del Potro (9), Mardy Fish­ (11), Gilles Simon (12) all entered. Another four-time­ champion, Andy Roddick, will also be part of the­ line-up." Its not Andy Murrays fault that nadal­ and federer have gone elsewhere(halle).. that said..­ where is djokovic playing....

Very poor quality of players in this event copared to­ the golden years. They should be questioning why the­ topplaters are in Halle is it because the over hype ­ of Murreyis boring them to death.

@ Karl: I'm still waiting for you to say anything­ of significance. What an insult to other players as­ well as Murray.

Good luck Andy!
