One Clown Against Three Kings

Andy Murray spent 407 weeks ranked world No. 4. More than any player in tennis history. This is the story of the Big Four debate, and what it cost the fourth man. Murray's career ran head first into the three greatest players of all time: Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic. He lost his first four Grand Slam finals. Then he hired Ivan Lendl, the only other man in the Open era to lose his first four major finals, and everything changed: the 2012 US Open, two Wimbledon titles, two Olympic gold medals (the only player in history with two singles golds), 14 Masters 1000 titles, the 2016 ATP Finals, and the world No. 1 ranking, taken from Djokovic in the deepest era men's tennis has ever produced. But the fight came at a price. This video covers Murray's full story: the Big Three vs Big Four debate, the Lendl partnership, the record 11 comebacks from two sets down, the 2016 season, the hip injury that began while he was still world No. 1, the tearful 2019 Australian Open press conference, hip resurfacing surgery, his comeback in Antwerp as the first singles player to win a title with a metal hip, and the Laver Cup photo he captioned himself. Was the Big Four real? Or was it always the Big Three and Andy Murray? Want To Help Support The Channel?:    / @a.c.e.v.x
