"I really felt humiliated that day," Murray recalls about his worst defeat against Federer
Since ending his collaboration with Novak Djokovic, Andy Murray has taken the time to appear for a few interviews in the media.
He was recently a guest on the YouTube channel *The Tennis Mentor* to talk about his career. When asked to mention a match where he felt humiliated, the former world No. 1 and two-time Wimbledon winner responded:
"I’d say one of the matches where I was most humiliated was at the O2 Arena during the ATP Finals. It was against Federer. I don’t remember if the score was 6-0, 5-0. But I’m certain it was at least 6-0, 3-0 before I won my first game.
He was playing very well, and I was playing very poorly. It was in front of my home crowd, in a big stadium. That’s the only time in my career where I hoped just to win a single game. I really felt humiliated that day."
Murray had come close to not winning a single game in that 2014 ATP Finals group-stage match. He found himself trailing 6-0, 5-0, and 0-30 on his serve before finally securing a game to save face. Federer, relentless, wrapped up the match shortly after in just 56 minutes.

The only reason for this article is TT once again is trying to justify the embarassingly poor perfomenace and unwatchability of the women's Wimbledon final. Women breaking those barriers! Unfortunately the barriers they are breaking are those of getting paid the same for not playing as long, as well, or bringing the same viewership (9M for the men, 5.4M for the women) Kudos!
