Whoever said Olympics tennis medal don't matters, look at how Del Potro and Djokovic reacted when they lost. That medal just worth as much as grand slams
in a way much more obviously because it only comes around once in 4 yrs and is chance to get a medal for your country. Ironically any of the top players come from countries that traditionally don't do well in the medal tally and therefore would mean much more to them the idea of getting a gold medal than GB. Ironic then that Murray won it two Olympics in a row. Doubt he'll do it in 2020 though
@@omerrasiuk2449 Thats completely irrelevent the feeling of winning for your country and winning something that only comes every 4 years is way more valuable than any slam.
This match deserved a 5th set,DelPotro had an exausting semifinal vs Nadal but credit to Murray who tired him even more with his style of play. I'm a huge Federer fan and Murray might not have the best record in slam finals but to win 2 gold medals in 2 consecutive Olympics is one heck of achievement
Yea but the rest in between matches is always different at the Olympics. A lot of the times you play the next day, or you may be playing doubles on the same day. In grandslam, you typically (unless something bizarre) get a day's rest and usually don't play doubles.
He’ll be the one to watch out for this year as he’s playing in a home Olympics. Look at how Andy was inspired in London 2012 and Juan Martin was inspired here.
big 4 at the olympics: Nadal-gold in singles and doubles "ok no surprise there" Federer-gold in doubles, silver in singles "really? figured he would've won in singles too" Djokovic-bronze in singles "no way he should at least have gotten silver" Murray-back to back singles gold "wait... WHAT?!!"
A thought for Del Potro. He beat Djokovic for the bronze medal at the 2012 London Olympics ( Wimbledon ), and earned silver against Murray in the 2016 Rio Olympics.
Del Potro tried. But you often have to beat 3 out of the big 4 to win these big tournaments. He slayed 2 of them, but Unfortunately for him, he ran into a peak Andy Murray.
Gonzalez achieved the same as Del Potro has up until now. He was bronze in Athens 2004 and silver in Beijing 2008. Funny thing is he did get gold winning doubles with Massu in Athens 2004 so even though it's not the same discipline, he has all three.
I would rather win an Olympic gold than a grand slam. A grand slam is the epitome of tennis, but a gold medal is an achievement for your whole country.
He's 32. Already accomplished. The guy's done his bit for the UK and Scotland. We will never see his likes again. How can we Brits ever find a miracle like him again.?
I think this was harder for Andy than 2012 because he was on home ground then with 90% of the crowd backing him, but here was playing Juan Martin, a South American on South American soil. So it was like Del Potro's home Olympics.
Alexa V. Morgan Well, if he feels he can get back to singles for the U.S Open this year there’s no reason he won’t be able to defend his title in Tokyo.
Del Potro at his best is scary good, shame about his injuries. His Wimbledon semi against Djokovic is one of my favourite matches and he was practically on one leg for most of it
So Andy Murray has now won a quarter of every Mens singles title that has ever been contested at the Olympics, and has not lost a Singles match at the Olympic for 11 years and counting....
Dementieva, Massú, Mečíř and Rosset what do they all have in common? all won a gold medal... but never won a grand slam? Do we even remember them? No. Olympic Gold is a great honour... Davis Cup is a great honour... Masters1000 title is a great honour but none of that matters Grand Slams is what define you as a tennis player and what makes you great!!
Murray has won several GS and he is de only one to defend gold medal in the olympics, wich in my opinion is the gratest sport event in the world. Djokovic and Federer havent even win once the gold in singles.
@@den_525 but Olympic is bigger than other things than slams!! Also we don't remember that players because they won nothing outside of it!! I also don't know winners of RG in 1980s,1990s because they were random.people only remember big champion

So interesting how the top players sometimes don’t do well in non-GS tournaments… maybe it has something to do with the Best of 3 in most non-GS tournaments?? But Olympics have been Best of 5 (no Roger, Rafa, Novak)… except Tokyo will only be Best of 3.
In hindsight, Murray was the best player in the world for the last 6 months of 2016. Plus, Djokovic and Nadal both lost to Delpo, who could have been the best player in the world if it wasn’t for his injuries. So I don’t think that the top players performed poorly at all. It’s a similar story for the 2012 Olympics. Murray and Delpo are surprisingly underrated.
y nadal hubiera ganada aunque sea plata pero mas probable oro porque nadal es un nounstro en juegos olimpicos hubiese sido una hazaña que gane dobles e individal oro
No he doesn't at all. Thats just the way he is. He just doesn't get over excited is all. It means everything to him or he wouldn't give his all trying to win it

2 gold medals , the first to do so -ANDY MURRAY
Andy Murray is amazing and my all time favourite player.
The king of Olympic tennis!
I would rather win an Olympic gold than a grand slam. A grand slam is the epitome of tennis, but a gold medal is an achievement for your whole country.
Del Potro, las lágrimas de un Guerrero!! 👏👏
He's 32. Already accomplished. The guy's done his bit for the UK and Scotland. We will never see his likes again. How can we Brits ever find a miracle like him again.?
This was the best era of men’s tennis ever. We’ll never see the likes of this again in our lifetime.
This is why ANDY MURRAY is in the big 4
Winning a gold medal in the Olympics needs almost the same time and effort as winning a grandslam.
An unusual appearance of some Argentine defence here.
lol
2016, el año de Andy Murray, ganó de todo y más el Número 1 del mundo.
To this day one of the finest, most competitive men's tennis matches, in any competition.
There’s nothing like winning an olympic gold. It’s magical.

There were a great atmosphere during that match. Full of Argentinians for Del Potro and Brazilians/GB supporters for Murray.
Nicolás massu gold in singles and dobles in Athens 2004... The only one who has done in the same tournament
That’s not too bad - good job! ☺
Not too bad
Even Sweeter To Watch!.
No one has ever gone back to back
If it were not for the career ending hip injury, Murray could have gone for third gold in a row in Tokyo 2020...a hat-trick...
He's not done yet!
Alexa V. Morgan Well, if he feels he can get back to singles for the U.S Open this year there’s no reason he won’t be able to defend his title in Tokyo.
Alexa V. Morgan who with😂 Edmund? Norrie? Against the likes of cabal farah, mahut herbert no chance
Still could happen, he would have won a couple more Slams if he wasn't injured. Maybe he could still win one more.
Theres more then enough time for Murray to come-back in the singles and defend his title at the olympics in Tokyo.
