Murray In Awe Of Federer

[Scott]

From BBC:

Andy Murray said he is full of respect for Roger Federer as the Swiss star chases a record match-winning streak of 46 at the Indian Wells Masters Series.

World number one Federer has won 41 consecutive matches since losing to British number one Murray last August.

"When you've won so many tournaments, to keep mentally focused for every tournament is great," said Murray.

Murray, 19, has a first-round bye and then plays a qualifier while Tim Henman faces Czech Jan Hernych on Saturday.

It is the first time the Britons have played in the same tournament since Madrid in October as Henman has been out with injury.

Federer heads a field containing all of the world's top 10.

i'm bored of federer to be honest. it sucks knowing who's gonna win a competition before it starts.

I admire Federer, his consistency and style is great. He's always maintained fairplay and lacked the sort of arrogance you would expect from a man who is rarely beaten.

I'm sure he will go on to break even more records before he finishes.

My favourite tennis player though is Rafael Nadal. Great player.

Love Federer. Classy player, classy guy. Nadal is just an athlete. Pisses me off. Federer is like the PaulScholes of tennis. Murray's just a moody twat. Honestly, the way he moans and mopes you'd think he never gets any.

IT was becoming similar to Schumacher in F1

...and then he goes and loses before breaking the next record.

Roger Federer would get destroyed by Pete Sampras in his prime.

I love great sports men like federer, hes like tiger woods within his own sport. I honestly think federer is the greatest already and why do we continue to turn our noses up in this country towards someone sucessful. Hes the best and the rest simply have to catch up, if your a tennis fan how can you get bored of watching roger federer.
