Kimoni:
I go with Bellong on this one. Murray is overhyped esp in UK, someone whose most loyal fan would dare not place a bet on in a GS final

He is not overhyped in Britain - no one is placing him amongst the greats. He cannot be overhyped in Britain - he's the best we have and the only one to deliver for ages .

Kimoni:
You and I know he cannot improve his game better than he has done, he has since passed that curve.

Now that he has sidelined Mauresmo, things can only get better.

Kimoni:
Speaking as someone who likes his personality a lot, I am also being very objective

Not him, his pushy mum or his potty-mouthed wife.

^{In the past 5 years, only 6 players have won GS tourneys. Bro' Andy is among !}

Kimoni:

#yimu
British press are the worst of the lot...no controversy in that.
Before the last World Cup, you would think they already won the cup. Shiooorrrr
#UKlivingonpastglory

Generally I agree. And they are borderline delusional about it. But not in Andy' case.

pickabeau1:
every nation hypes their player
Murray is not even hyped in my opinion so naijababe is right..u should watch the way Marca hypes Real Madrid or the Spainish team
He just has the expectation of the whole country on his shoulders

bellong:
TV and Naijababe,

I am in no way dismissing Murray's quality and ability, he is a good tennis player. However, the British press is known for blowing his ability out of proportion like they always do for their average football player.

I explained why I said he is overhyped. When they begin to compare him with the King and prince of tennis, is that not taking his luck too far?

No one is comparing him to the greats - even the 3 greats still active now.

As Pick rightly notes, it's not the hype, it's the expectation - I honestly felt the contry' literal demand that he win Wimbledon would cause him to meltdown. He not only won it, he won it in straight sets - and against an all time great.

Exactly! So where is the overhype? And at bolded, dare I say pulled a similar feat against the best clay court player even if he did not go on to win the tourney.

Kimoni, bigger yimu at you. You think say na beans to be the leader of the commonwealth?

Serious tennis discussion going on here, while I'm still learning 1love 2live ati be be lo.

Na my belle you wan see.
I'm a size ten UK just want to shave 2inches of my waist and tone up. Dasall. Besides with this new improved diet I'll probably add more weight through muscle mass.

Exercise is good for your health.

About slots? Early mornings whether weekend or weekdays.

yet, the women still get equal pay as men with their shoddy performance. someone should bring freecocoa here to see the stats.

but you would be labelled an enemy of the state if you dare say women should get less pay. it's so unfair to the men who often grind it out for 4 or 5 sets in the final to be paid the same amount as the women who can end it all in 2 sets.

Serena in 2012 won the singles finals and still played doubles to win (Olympics and Wimbledon)

No man dares try it

That's a cheap talk from brainless folks.That girl deserves to be where she is,she has muscles due to aggressive training doesn't make her a man.

i don't have a problem with serena's body - she has a sexy body, i used to envy common.

freecocoa:
Duh!

look at the viewership!
more women actually prefer to watch the men play tennis than watch their fellow women. if women cannot put a display worthy of large viewership that is equal to the women, their pay should be halved!

Abegi.

It's not news that men are more interested in some sports than women. It has nothing to do with the women's display.

Yes.. Murray is not overhyped by the definition given. However, his best has passed him...

you are missing the point!
9.3m people saw the men's final. at least of that figure would be women. it then means women would rather watch men play tennis than watch their fellow women play the sports.

pickabeau1:

ok

I asked a question, you are yet to give an answer.

coogar:

That comment was nasty but let's be honest
A lot of people think it coupled with the fact she is black

That's why even though she is the preeminent female tennis player she is out earned by sharapova


You expect freecocoa to agree females find female tennis boring?

And how is that supposed to mean anything? They want to see fine sexy sweaty men, is that surprising?

You said I don't watch female tennis and I asked what it means, if I don't.

if women don't support their own games, how is their game meant to develop? after a while, they would be screaming sexism or female discrimination.

freecocoa is a very reasonable feminist!
her own feminism believes in cooking ogbono & isi-ewu for her hubby. why do you think timbuktou has been travelling to the east frequently these days?

How many women made up that number at the men's game? It's not like women don't support their own games, it's more that women aren't really interested in such games. I can bet you that many of the women at the men's game were there because of their partners or due to their crush on the players.

Feminism doesn't mean I won't take care of my man na.
