Borg sure of Murray success

Men's Tennis, 17:44, July 3, 2010 ,

Wimbledon legend Bjorn Borg believes Andy Murray has the game to win a Grand Slam one day and his time will come.

The 54-year-old won the Wimbledon title on five consecutive occasions between 1976 and 1980 and also claimed six French Open titles and four US Opens in an illustrious career that ended at the age of just 27.
The Swede watched Murray's straight-sets defeat to Rafael Nadal in the Wimbledon semi-finals on Friday and was impressed by what he saw from both players.
Murray has reached the final of the US Open and the Australian Open and has now been beaten in the Wimbledon semi-finals in the last two years.
But Borg has no doubt that the Scot will eventually win one of the big four as he has everything a player needs to succeed at the top level.
"I saw the match yesterday and I thought it was a really good match," he told BBC Scotland. "Nadal played his best match so far in the tournament. If Andy had won that second set, it might have been a completely different match.
"One day, he is going to win a Slam. He has the game, he has everything."
