Murray does not fake injury, he is a good sportsman. He looks frustrated and may shout when things don't go his way, but he is not faking injuries. In his recent Indian Wells-Miami matches, he has actually been very badly injured at times. I think it is better for the tour to have someone who expresses their emotions. Murray is a good, mature personality for the game and a very interesting character.

Djokovic's excessive ball bouncing before the point does distract opponents, I have seen it before. Not only does it do that, it also makes him very boring to watch,


I do agree, someone who is not afraid to show some emotion is much better for tennis than an emotionless robot. Murray goes TOO far sometimes, however. His screaming at Gilbert is an example. What good does that do, for one? Then also, I truly doubt the crowd appreciates that.

Murray does seem to have an injury this time, he might not play Davis Cup. So many other times however, he drags his feet between points, holds his back, winces, grabs his leg, etc., etc. Then during points, his movement is never affected, nor will his shots have declined in pace or control. He does that often.

Does he go past the time limit? If not, he is well within his rights to keep bouncing the ball as many times as his heart desires. I have never heard of him getting a time violation, no?


Umpires aren't so good at watching the time limit. Nadal has been timed to go over a minute over the limit, and they never say anything.

yes, but he has been given warnings before. I have never seen Djokovic given one, ever.
