I think he's done remarkably well to hold 3 slams and catch Murray up again. He really is making the most of his rare opportunities when they come to him.
Looking back, Andy should really have found some way to produce better tennis in his finals and sneak a couple more to add to his name by now, but there you go. He does struggle in big matches against top players sometimes, and his style of play often differs to what came before in the tournament.
Wawrinka on the other hand just hits through the ball like a juggernaut no matter what match it is or who the opponent is. Often, he sprays his shots all over the place and gets dumped out early, occasionally it all clicks and he is unbeatable.
Is it confidence? I feel Andy has a superior set of skills - his overall career stats and range of shots proves this - but with Stan you feel confidence is a thing he rarely has to worry about; a bad day at the office is just a bad day at the office. And it's allowed him to blast his way to 3 grand slam titles.

I agree with all points.
