Surely our best ever sportsman isn’t someone who generally couldn’t match a Swiss, a Spaniard and a Serb? That sounds a bit sad.
CloseHe's not our greatest ever sportsman
To be fair that's a hard one to answer isn't it ?
Not really the point. Tennis is the most all round physically and technically demanding sport out there and he has competed at the very top level for the best part of 20 years. Loads of people saying he should have retired 4 years ago but the sheer physical and mental courage of the man is showing everyone why he didn't.

Always fascinating for me to see how many F1 driver's have Scottish connections.Tennis is extremely demanding to be fair , as is formula 1 driving ..
I reckon Lewis might pip Andy
Toughy next up...either Sinner or Medvedev.Jack Draper through to the US Open SF, hasn’t dropped a set so far. It will be interesting to see how his career develops, and whether he can eclipse Andy Murray.
I’ve also found out that Draper is the first Brit to be in the US Open semis since Murray won it in 2012.Toughy next up...either Sinner or Medvedev.
If you follow tennis, you know how good Murray was... Unfortunate (for him in a way) to be involved when he was with Fed/Djok/Nadal playing.
They have been quoted as saying he was the only other player at their level....
Murray also only one of 10 males to reach the final of all four grand slams in the history of the sport. Was in the US final at 21.
Jack has a long way to go....but this is a good run!
Worry about his thigh though!!!
