Although Rafael Nadal has praised Andy Murray as a “amazing player,” Murray was ultimately a victim of the tennis era in which he came of age. During the height of their careers, Murray and Nadal shared the court with Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic; the latter three have dominated the Grand Slam scene for the past 20 years. The Scot is the owner of three such titles.
As the British star gets ready for what is likely to be his final French Open, Rafael Nadal has praised Andy Murray as the player who is closest to “the same level” of tennis’ big three of the past 20 years.
After yet another injury-plagued year, Murray is on the road to recovery and will make his comeback at the Geneva Open later this month. It is generally anticipated that he will make one more appearance at the US Open and Wimbledon before ending his career.
He has won two Grand Slam titles: the first in 2012, in New York City, and the second on home soil in 2013 and 2016. Any other generation would look back on that career return with much more fondness, along with over £50 million in prize money.
