I can’t believe people actually think Andy Murray is a better player than Novak Djokovic.
No way in hell. Nole is way more all-round with blistering groundstrokes. Murray is one-dimensional relying on his opponents errors to win. Murray’s only really emerged over the past year whereas Djokovic made the No.3 actually matter back in 2007 and has been near the top ever since. Furthermore Djoko reached his first GS final a year earlier than murrays and his first GS quarter 2 years before murrays. NOLE HAS WON A GS. MURRAY HAS NOT. So Muzz fans can just shutup and face the reality. i’m not saying Murray does not have the potential to be better, but right now he isn’t.
Look at the stats:
Murray:
Australian Open 4R (2007, 2009)
French Open QF (2009)
Wimbledon SF (2009)
US Open F (2008)
Beijing Olympics: 1st Round
Djokovic:
Australian Open W (2008)
French Open SF (2007, 2008)
Wimbledon SF (2007)
US Open F (2007), US Open SF (2008, 2009)
Beijing Olympics: Bronze Medal
Novak Djokovic is one of the few players to reach the semifinals of every Grand Slam. Murray has only been to the finals of US Open and semis at Wimbledon. Djokovic is a US Open Finalist and Australian Open Champ.
Djokovic has won 16 titles in his career, Murray has won 14
Djokovic has accumulated $15 million, Murray has $9 million (both rounded).
Djokovic has won 5 Masters 1000 titles (11 finals), Murray has won 4 (5 finals)
Djokovic has won the Masters Cup World Tour finals, Murray hasn’t.
I totally agree with you. Murray fans (if he has any) should just f_uck up because everyone knows Djokovic doesn’t play cheap and rely on errors to win. Also Djokovic is more consistent.
Djokovic is the better player on all surfaces but Murray can be more consistent than him especially on hard courts hence their head to head. Murray is mentally tougher than Djokovic, sometimes it seems like Djokovic is hoping to win the match rather than believing he can do it, it used to be with just Federer and Nadal but sometimes it extends to other players. I like to think they are as bad as each other.

Please if your actually gonna take someone’s information at least imply that you didnt go through all the trouble of looking it up yourself. I spent a good 15 minutes on researching.

And Djokovic is only like 10 days older than him! Everyone thinks Murray is a ton younger, but he’s not. Novak is way more accomplished, and way better. The only thing that Murray has over him, is that he was #2, for like, a week, lol.

Djokovic is a better player as of now, but I have a feeling that in 3 or 4 years it will be Murray who is the better player. I hope I am wrong though as Novak is awesome and Murray is not lol.
By the way don’t plagiarize other people’s work. It is pretty obvious that you literally copied and pasted Mexicanhatdancer’s research into your own question. This question should be deleted.

Exactly, Murray can only defend, I really hate his style of play. Djokovic has a better game, and of course better results.
I hate it when people hype up Murray and predict him to win every grand slam, and he doesn’t even get to one final. What a joke.
