Quoting limited to 3 levels deep
comparing a squash player to andy murray is like saying a tiddlywinks champion
achieved more than a chess champion.
It's not. Don't know much about squash?
i have a general grasp of the rules but couldn't tell you the name of one player.

which kind of backs up my point.
squash isn't a big industry compared to tennis.

not taking anything away from any squash player not that they'd care anyway.

but there's a reason that tennis is more popular and therefore generates more publicity,
sponsorship money etc.

anyway i've said all there is to say on this topic before posts start getting deleted for going ot.

I accept it is not as popular but by your logic Steve Redgrave, who had won 5 Olympic golds, 3 commonwealth and 9 world championships, should not be considered as the greatest British sportsman no one could tell you anyone he beat, or even what distance he has raced over. And no one gives a shampoo about rowing.

Andy Murray is a Scottish sportsman who has worked hard to better himself year on year. He is a gem who we should appreciate. I remember the skinny 18 year old who struggled to play 5 sets. He is where he is because he deserves it and the fact he has achieved it in an era in which tennis is so demanding and competitive makes his achievements all the better.

There's a tiddlywinks championship! How does one join that?

It is. Depends how you judge it. Boxing is more demanding but doesn't last 4 hours. Only a fraction of court time is spend playing.
