I can't say I particularly like the man but I don't have any strong feelings against him either. It seems a shame that someone being good at whatever they do these days isn't enough. They have to be charming and preferably good looking as well. Seems rather shallow but then society is shallow these days. He won Wimbledon which is a pretty fine achievement.
he is efinately not particularly engaging. however, he will have my support for the way he has supported women in the game (and was one of the first top players to have a woman coach)
He was in the audience of mock the week and they ribbed him chronic and his retorts were actually quite funny but he does look very embarrassed with attention
I think he's a very personable (yes, really) bloke with a dry sense of humour.
He's an exceptional sportsman but is often uncomfortable talking about it all, especially straight before/after a match.
Having seen him interviewed outside of tournaments he comes across very well.
His alleged 'anti-British' statement was an off-the-cuff remark which he simply had the misfortune to make 'on air'.
He's supremely well thought of by his colleagues and competitors both male and female and I hope he'll find a niche for his talents post-tennis.
No I can't imagine playing a game well that I love and trained for and Oh No, I get quarter a million in my little tennis short pockets and have to endure being asked about my strategy and tactics. Goes with the territory. I could live with his salary and be happy to receive it.
He's a tennis player not a groomed tv presenter. Sure he will have a PR team, but he is what he is i.e. A tennis player and was / is a pretty good one and his body has paid the price.
Oh. dear. retrocop - such bitterness- unbelievable over an old remark - in jest. Not good for the blood pressure. He has achieved what - come on Tim - failed to do.
I've long been convinced that the dislike of Andy Murray by English people had nothing whatsoever to do with his English football comment. Instead, it was always based on the plain fact that he was so vastly better as a player than the great English hope, 'Pussycat' Tim Henman, ever was or ever could be.
