Andy Roddick is one of those athletes whose fame outsizes his accomplishments. He's one of the more successful American tennis players, but in the Roger Era, his on-court record will never put him alongside the greats.
His recent loss at Wimbledon was miserable, but he still managed to pull enough strength and dignity to charm the crap out of everyone during his post-match Centre Court interview.
(Something Lebron should have done but that is another story)
Now, Andy isn't the same young phenom destined to dominate men's tennis, rather a transformed underdog more fun to cheer on.
You can call it over the hill or whatever, but the key is he gains some sympathy in a weird...you're way richer than me but I feel bad for you.....kinda way.
I hope to see Roddick win a second Grand Slam title, and I am definitely not ruling it out.
It just would have been nice to see him win this one.
