During his pre-Wimbledon press conference with media on Saturday, a reporter asked Andy Murray what he admired most about Novak Djokovic’s game. Granted, Murray would rather talk about himself, about his chances of winning Wimbledon, about his recently reborn relationship with Ivan Lendl, but Andy took his time and gave a thoughtful answer like he always does (don’t you just love that about Mr. Murray?).

Just for the sake of clarity, we’ll tell you exactly what the reporter said: “What do you admire most about Novak's game, if you had to pick one or a couple of things to focus on, that distinguish him from everyone else?” the reporter asked.

And now, Murray’s answer, because it’s always interesting to hear what one superstar says about another…

“I think the consistency really. I mean, he obviously plays every shot well. He doesn't have weaknesses in his game. He does everything well. Plays well on all of the courts.

But his consistency and drive over the last, you know, few years has been incredible. The amount of finals he's played, there's been barely any matches that he's played that you'd call upsets in the last, I don't know, 15, 16 months, since Doha last year. He made, what, every single final through until he pulled out in Doha earlier this year. I don't know if that's ever happened before, where someone's pretty much gone over a year consistently reaching the finals of tournaments. That's the most impressive thing.

In an individual sport, if you have a really bad day, wake up, you feel terrible, you lose at this level. He hasn't had really any of those results or those matches over the last few years.

That's very impressive.”
