In an era dominated by Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, and Novak Djokovic, often referred to as the Big Three, Andy Murray’s tenacity and skill have often been overshadowed despite his remarkable achievements in the realm of tennis.

Mats Wilander, a former World No. 1 and a seven-time Grand Slam champion, recently shed light on Murray’s career, suggesting a what-if scenario that has long been the subject of tennis fans’ debates.

According to Wilander, had Murray’s prime not coincided with that of the Big Three, the Scot could have amassed a total of ten Grand Slam titles, a statement that not only highlights Murray’s exceptional talent but also showcases the domination by the Big 3.

Wilander’s comments came after Murray’s recent performance in Miami, where he displayed unparalleled determination by continuing to compete at a high level despite suffering an ankle injury. Wilander proclaims him “one of the greatest fighters of all time.”

Wilander stated, “A lot of people have misunderstood Andy Murray over the years. But when you see him in Miami after doing that to his ankle, suddenly, they might realize Andy Murray is one of the greatest fighters of all time, one of the greatest competitors of all time. He would have won 10 majors if he didn’t play at the same time as the big three. Again, it’s just Andy Murray. He’s an unbelievable fighter. He’s got so much knowledge, so much experience, but he still looks at tennis like a kid, like when he was 14 years old. He’s a fighter. He’s a warrior out there.”

Murray’s career is decorated with three Grand Slam titles: two at Wimbledon (2013, 2016) and one at the US Open (2012), victories that are all the more impressive considering the caliber of his contemporaries.

Andy Murray is out of the tour for an ‘extended period’ after sustaining an ankle injury

After sustaining a severe injury at the latest Miami Open, Andy Murray has opted out of the tour for an indefinite period of time.

Murray was severely hurt during the third set of his matchup against Tomas Machac at the Miami Open. Even with an injured ankle, Murray was determined and gave his all to push the match to a tiebreaker.

Unfortunately, he had to face defeat and later he announced that he suffered a full rupture of his anterior talofibular ligament and a near full-thickness rupture of his calcaneofibular ligament.

Now, Andy has taken a break to see a specialist so that he can determine his “next steps”.
