Youtube is a heck of a thing. Today, you can use it to time travel back to see Andy Murray as a teenager during the three years he spent living and training at the Sanchez-Casal Tennis Academy outside of Barcelona, Spain.

It's amazing to see Murray as a younger man, proclaiming that he's "not really sure why I decided to play tennis" and that he "always wanted to be a footballer." Not surprising given that he grew up in Scotland.

Perhaps the most ironic statement of the four-minute video is when the narrator calls Murray "the next Tim Henman."

Heman played 14 seasons on tour and won 11 career titles, reaching No. 4  and being a consistent Top 10 player during his career.

But he couldn't quite get over the top in the Grand Slams, reaching the semifinals of Wimbledon four times, the French Open once and the US Open once.

For a nation that hasn't seen a male player win a Grand Slam title since 1936, that's a bit of a foreboding comparison. Murray has won 22 titles in his already impressive career, reached No. 2 in the world and reached three Grand Slam finals, but has yet to win one.
