Andy Murray can perform real feats of clay - just give him time!

At the tender age of 21, Andy Murray still has a lot to learn in the game of tennis. He has had many injuries already in his career, which have blighted his move up the rankings so far.

He has flirted with a top-10 ATP ranking but earlier this year dropped out of the top 20, only to re-enter during the clay court season. Murray has no points to defend in either the Hamburg Masters Series event this week or the French Open in a couple of weeks.

Can the British player potentially become a great clay court tennis superstar? I think so - just give him a bit of time to find his feet and he'll soon be challenging the best on the surface!

It's true Murray hasn't had a great 2008 clay court season so far, but the youngster has had limited experience playing on the surface professionally. In 2004 and 2005 he was playing on the Challenger and Futures tours and had relatively good success, winning a couple of low-key events on the Spanish clay.
