Andrew Stephen Roddick (born August 30, 1982) is an American former professional tennis player.
I'm gonna have to start winning some of the matches to call it a rivalry!
He [Vince Spadea] was about as down and out as you could see from a Top 20 player. Then to claw his way back through the minor leagues and do it the hard way where he wasn't young, wasn't getting wildcards, wasn't getting any help. I guess he decided he was just going to do it.
I've pretty much been portrayed as every style thing you can be. After Wimbledon you are Andy Everyman, who everybody is rooting for. I think the meat and potatoes of who I am hasn't been covered yet.
I'm convinced being a tennis analyst is the easiest job in the world.
If I can break one out of every three return games, I'm going to give myself a shot in a lot of matches.
I used to go to the U. S. Open on my birthdays and sit in the nosebleeds.
One little secret of the guys who have won one slam, is that we don't want other guys to win one because its like a bit of a special fraternity.
I always said if I had to pick one Grand Slam to win, it would be the U. S. Open.
I want everyone to look back and think that I was awesome.
If I wore a sleeveless shirt, people would try to feed me after the match.
I think the medical term for the injury is 'the bottom of my ass hurts. '
I'm not the savior of men's tennis in America. I'm just a kid trying to win a few matches.
I'm just glad to see that Pete (Sampras) shut everyone up last year. That was satisfying. You can't bag on guys like Pete or Tiger (Woods) or Michael Jordan. They can play as long as they want, they can do whatever they want. Nobody should be able to tell them differently.
Having two older brothers is a healthy reminder that you're always closer to the bottom than you are to the top.
I'm the most successful bad player ever.
If nothing else, I'm a decent quote.
There's no home team in tennis, no built-in fan base, so the players have to step up and do their fair share.
There have been great champions in every generation.
I don't think I'm one of those guys who won't pick up a racket for three years. . . I love hitting tennis balls.
In the States, tennis is sixth or seventh on the totem pole as far as sports go.
