    He's not British, he's Scottish. Don't insult the proud Scottish people.

    Murray is a goofy looking bastard and goofy looking bastards tend to be good at tennis. Really the only surprise is that it took him so long to win.

    My bad! You Scotts and Britts, aren't you guys practically cousins? Can't you all just share a pint of ale and get along?

    well british has come to be synonymous with english, and given the fact that scotish and english are two separate ethnicities I can see why non english people would not want to be associated with being british

    in what world has it come to be synonymous?

    british = english/welsh/scottish/northern irish.

    english = just english.

    get a clue.

    MUZZA IS THE FUTURE, this whole Scottish/British argument is ridiculous i'm Scottish and i have no problem being called British.

    You can't say that anymore. He also won US Open and Olympic Gold (beating Federer at Wimbledon). It seems once he got one monkey off his back, he relaxed and started winning every major event he plays in. (except for loss to Djokovic in Australian final).

    Good for Andy, about time GB had one of their own bring home the Wimbledon title. Can you imagine if the US had such a drought in the US Open? I am sure we would be cheering just as hard for one of our own.

    let me put it in terms you can understand, america is a vast continent that includes many countries, yet when someone says i am american everyone assumes he is a US citizen, they forget that a canadian, a mexican, venezuelan etc are also american

    in a similar way, although geographical britain includes england, scotland and wales, being british has become associated with being english

    and since you are such a smug knowitall, let me knock you down a notch by pointing out that you are wrong, northern ireland is not british, it is a part of the united kindom, which is a political union, but britain is a geographical region that does not include the irish isle
