The Legs of Andy Murray and Gilles Simon Are The Talk of Twitter

By Lindsay on January 22, 2013

Yesterday Andy Murray beat Gilles Simon 6-3, 6-1, 6-3 in the fourth round of the Australian Open. The match was very straightforward/boring, but one thing did get everyone talking: legs!

@scottishchicp Simon came through a 5 setterto play Murray plus check his chicken legs compared to Murray.

Murray leads Simon two sets to love and the Frenchman’s thin legs looking less robust by the game.

— Neil Harman (@NeilHarmanTimes) January 21, 2013

Murray’s early game plan against Simon clear. Run him around, erode whatever strength remains in those French legs. Punish him.

I’ve finally found a player whose legs are thinner than Ana’s: Gilles Simon.

I don’t mean this is a mean way but Simon sometimes remind me of a peperami character. having such skinny arms and legs.

Why are y’all on Murray’s muscles right now?On MTF he’s had the nickname Thick Legs for years.

— Chris P (@scoobschris) January 21, 2013

What is up with Murray’s legs… He used to be like some tall skinny fella.

— Baloo (Jill)(@DontDieNow) January 21, 2013
