Which is why I said for a while - for a few years early and in the middle of the previous decade Murray was as likely to win a major as two of the other three. In fact, it could have been a big five because the period which covered Murray’s three wins saw a Swiss player win a hat trick of titles, but it was Stan Wawrinka. Roger Federer did not win a Grand Slam title during Murray’s time as a winner,while Nadal only won three times- the dominant player during that period was Djokovic with seven wins.
