More quotes by Andy Roddick
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.
Andy Roddick
Most players who play tennis love the game. But I think you also have to respect it. You want to do everything you can in your power to do your best. And for me, I know I get insane guilt if I go home at the end of the day and don't feel I've done everything I can. If I know I could have done something better, I have this uneasy feeling.
Andy Roddick
I don't care when people use the term 'one-Slam wonder' with me.
Andy Roddick
I'm still missing that little something.
Andy Roddick
I enjoy hitting tennis balls. I haven't lost any of the innocent parts of tennis. I just do it in front of less people.
Andy Roddick
For every bad moment I've had, there have been 25 positives.
Andy Roddick
I don't have much interest in being on a senior tour. I don't think I retired so that I could be on tour.
Andy Roddick
I don't think anyone in their right mind takes me serious.
Andy Roddick
I don't think about tennis 24/7. I enjoy time on the lake at my Florida home and just being lazy on the sofa.
Andy Roddick
Umpiring, the only job in the world where you can screw up on a daily basis and still have one!
Andy Roddick
I got to play in a crowd, play in Wimbledon finals, be the guy on a Davis Cup team for a while. Those are opportunities not a lot of people get.
Andy Roddick
I don't know that I'll ever be the guy who needs to go to a tournament to be seen and to spectate. I feel like I can accomplish spectating from home.
Andy Roddick
I'm an emotional player ... I like to leave it out there.
Andy Roddick
It's pretty high up there on the list. Being able to return a serve at that speed is one of the biggest things that separates the professionals from the recreational players.
Andy Roddick
I think I have a lot of room for improvement. My serve is okay, but I need to work on a lot of things: return, transition game, backhand.
Andy Roddick
My aggression out there is my weapon. I think it's more letting them know that I'm not going to let them get away with something, and I'm not just going to kind of poke it back and be content to stay in rallies.
Andy Roddick
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.
Andy Roddick
I'm not going to go run and hide because I'm catching some heat. I'm not going to stay at home and pout.
Andy Roddick
I want everyone to look back and think that I was awesome.
Andy Roddick
I used to hear a lot that all I could do was hit a serve, I couldn't volley, I can't hit a backhand, I don't return well, and then people would turn round and tell me I'm underachieving.
