Murray is not that close to being number 1 and it definitely seems a bit premature to discuss it.

I do think he's a slam dunk for #2 very shortly, possibly by the end of Roland Garros.

He has had great recent head to head records over the three he is chasing.

Nadal- Murray has won 2 of the last 3
Federer-Has won 4 straight and 6 of 7
Djokovic-Has won 3 straight

Of course, all of these wins were on hardcourts and I know some are doubting his clay court game. He's in top form right now and has virtually no points to defend this Spring I expect a rapid rise if and when Djokovic and Federer falter.

As for number 1, I do think he has a good chance of getting there one day but not this year.
