The complete embodiment of a Sports Personality. His life is his sport, it's in his DNA. Like he said, he works as hard as he can every single day and you believe him when he says it. I couldn't think higher of him.
He did nothing in 2015, there should be a rule where if you win a world title you are given preference. Tai Woffinden was World Champion that year, should have got the award.
I personally think he deserved it. He won 11 matches this year to help Great Britain win the Davis Cup. He always comes across as polite and and cares so much about his sport. A great champion
Don't be saft Tyson fury beat a 39 year old has bin in a weight division that's has been an embarrassment for the last ten years. Can't say that about men's tennis as it's the opposite. Tyson fury will lose and be a nobody gypo like he is
Well deserved in my opinion, just because its sports personality doesn't mean their personality has to be really out there, he's a sensible guy with a good work ethic, i think a lot of people misunderstand him and his dry sense of humour too. Overall a top bloke who brings a lot to his sport and is very relatable and grounded while at it. Well done Andy!!
+Andrew Crick Agree 100% He isn't a media whore. He loves his sport, his family and his achievements. Thankfully people are now starting to realise he is just an ordinary guy who worked hard for what he has!
And Andy Murray will do it again for a record breaking 3rd time, wat an absolute gentleman and humble superstar Elite tennis player sportsman, a true true icon Scottish legend, he will become sir Andy Murray, and rightly so🙌
I know this is from years ago but it’s a shame how many comments there are saying he’s got no personality. So many tennis players quote him as being one of the funniest on tour and I’ve seen him be very funny on game shows etc. he just doesn’t like press conferences and tbh I don’t blame him. Definitely deserved this award
Great Britain winning Davis cup is a monumental achievement considering Murray ha been the only good British make tennis players of the last ten years. I've watched Murray is whole career and never thought that he could lead Britain to Davis cup success
Good, it's great when a Good Person is rewarded. not like a certain hater to remain nameless that needs to fade away...just take your hate and go away. YAY!!!! ANDY MURRAY!!!!!!
Tyson fury should have pissed this award beating a super champion that hadn't been beating for donkeys years in Germany which is unheard of. Plus his personality is legendary! It's just typical of this PC country we live in today that freedom of speech is condemned and no longer exists in society today.
+Babajide Sotande-Peters Murray cos you cant have a Sports personality winning if they are a dickhead. The point is to have someone people look up to an example. Murray is an example TF is not
Tyson fury beat a 39 year old has bin in a weight division that's has been an embarrassment for the last ten years. Can't say that about men's tennis as it's the opposite. Tyson fury will lose and be a nobody gypo like he is. Why people think he should of won is beyond sanity
no surprise. he's the BBC golden boy. parents had front row seats. No personality and only won a team event. Scandalous!!!! And why did that other BBC bellend Lineker have to put Fury on the spot like that?
+Leo Pulvirenti You get the award for being a gentleman sportsman TF is just a boor and undeserving if you dont understand the reasons the award is given why comment?
+Keith Muir - did Andy Murray beat a world champion of 11 years? No - and sorry, one thing Fury has over Murray is a colourful personality- people watch him cause he's character regardless if you agree with what he says or not.
You dont get it for having a colourful personality you get it for being a gentleman sportsman which TF clearly is not. How many boorish and controversial comments has TF made plenty that why he didnt win. Cos he didnt by dint of his personality deserve to. Also winning the Davis cup is an achievement That the UK had failed to do for decades.
'Personality' of the Year? this is surely the most inappropriate title of any programme - it would be better to call it Sportsperson Achiever of the Year. It has nothing to do with their personality - if it was Andy Murray would never have won it. it is about what the person has done in the year, NOT what they are like as a person.
i agree with adam kenedy---i voted for tyson, then found out the phone lines voting for tyson were blocked. murray has no personality at all. its embarrassing.
absolute bullshit!!! How did Tyson Fury not win it with what he has achieved this year? All Murray did was help win a tournament that nobody actually cares about.
