« Is this a fairly safe prediction about Federer and Nadal for 2017 season? | Main | Andy Murray wins Sunday Mail's Scottish Sports Personality of Year award for a fifth time. Murray's achievement can be attributed to the return of his coach Ivan Lend. »
There's ONE thingy that separates Murray from Federer, Nadal and Djokovic that may partly (wholly?) be responsible for him lagging so far behind from the other three.
What is it?

Never before this year did he believe he was the top dog deserving to be No 1.

in a word---Belief.
The more interesting question to me is what the HECK that hangman clue is
Posted by: Bettyjane | 12/13/2016 at 11:10 AM
In my view not only belief that he could be, but also that he should be. For example, Federer always believed that he should be No 1. He even said that when Rafa took over: "It is so strange to see No 2 beside my name ...".

Love local foodstuffs.
Haggis is not easily available anywhere outside Scotland, generally keeping him miserable and unfocused in most tournaments. With globalisation hitting its stride and the Chinese developing a love for haggis, Murray was more at home this year. But beware Trump and the move to protectionism. The first victim of his policies may be Murray's career.

Love this answer! TP, even if Alpha does not win the WoF for it, should be at least Honorable Mention or some Lifetime Achievement Award.

You have two out of three right. 'Pressure' doesn't fill all the blanks.
