What will Murray's ranking be by end of the year ?

freerider · Futures level

it depends on whther he can getr more consitent really, having said that he has won two tournaments this year... so id say 5th

steven · Tennis legend

I think I went for 5th in their contest - behind Fed, Nole, Riff-Raff & Pics. For at least a couple of days, I was wishing I hadn't had Duckboy out of the top 8 LOL

ForeverDelayed · Grand Slam Champion

I'm going to say number 6 or 7 as I'm still not convinced by his ability to score enough points in the clay court season to threaten a top 4 place

Fed, Nadal and Djokovic will be the top 3, and I think Nalbandian looks interested enough to score more points than Murray this year, and then you have Davy, Ferrer and Roddick who will all pick up quite a few points

Murray needs to start beating the top players when it really matters as well if he is to make the top 5

Who the hell is "Pics" ??

Seriously....we ought to have a translation thread in every section....I have no idea....it surely can't be Ferrer/Nalbandian/Gasquet/Youzhny/Roddick/Davydenko who I'd have thought were the main contenders for that spot

Count Zero · Tennis legend

maybe robredo?

Sheddie · administrator

hmm surely Steven couldnt have thought Robredo would end the year as no 4....he's been in dire form for ages and will be surprised if he ends the year inside top 25

Pics = Ferrer

The David Pics Ferrer thread on MTF will 'explain' it (and the first few hundred posts are recommended reading if you need a laugh)

You're so out of touch, David LOL

He's been Pics in Pick 'ems since last summer. I'll forgive you though, since you a) put Pics as the first sensible choice in your Pics/Numpty/Dammit/Misha/Duckboy/Undertaker list and b) didn't think I would be stupid enough to have gone for Rock On to end the year 4th! biggrin

1.

Top ten, but not top five. Probably 8 or 9.

And Nole will be #1.

Drew · Mar 18, 2008

No 5

Happycynic · Pro player

Top 8, probably not top 4 (where there is only really one place up for grabs, and Andy's clay game probably impedes gaining points at the MSeries/French open). I would go with 6/7.

All, lack of injury presuming, of course.

Madeline · Admin:Moderator + Tennis Legend

We have never really seen Andy's clay performance. Last year he was injured at the start, the year before he had just split from Petchey and was coachless when he was really too young to cope alone.

I'm sitting firmly on the fence until we see how he does on the red stuff!
