    Why Andy Murray could be the GOAT

    Murray is the only player, man or woman, to win two Olympic singles golds. He reached No. 1 and won three majors while competing against Federer, Nadal and Djokovic at their peaks, reaching 11 major finals. He also ended Britain's 77-year Wimbledon drought and won the Davis Cup almost single-handedly.

    Andy Murray head to head

    How the ranking works. Every head-to-head vote is a result, like a game. The standings use a Bradley–Terry model, the same idea behind chess ratings: beating a highly rated legend counts for more than beating a long shot. Ratings are shown on a chess-style scale centred on 1500.

    One vote per matchup per person. If you see a pairing again in another session your new answer replaces the old one, so nobody can stuff the ballot by repeating a matchup.
