More quotes by Andy Roddick
There's no home team in tennis, no built-in fan base, so the players have to step up and do their fair share.
Andy Roddick
I don't really rate press conferences. It's not as though I leave the room fist-pumping my way down the corridor after a good one.
Andy Roddick
I'm convinced being a tennis analyst is the easiest job in the world.
Andy Roddick
There's no doubt there are issues with clay. Our issues have issues that are issues right now. That's not a secret.
Andy Roddick
The key to the match might have been his serving. Maybe I should have concentrated harder on watching them go by me, I don't know.
Andy Roddick
I don't want to live and die with every point that's being played out there now. I'm going to let my coach live and die with every point.

When you make the schedule, you're not planning on playing deep into every single week, or at least I haven't in the past. I'm not physically or mentally ready to pick up my bags and go to Monte Carlo. I definitely have to look at what's best for my chances at (at the French Open).

I used to, like, hit for a half hour and then go eat Cheetos the rest of the day, come out and drill forehands. Now I'm really trying to make it happen, being professional, really going for it, and I miss my Cheetos.
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
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.
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'll be the first to admit it, the life I'm leading is basically a joke. I should probably be cooler about it, but I can't fake it, you know?
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
The whole point of team competition is to pick your teammates up.
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
If I can break one out of every three return games, I'm going to give myself a shot in a lot of matches.
Andy Roddick
I played basketball in high school, and I love watching sports - I'll watch everything except maybe hockey.
Andy Roddick
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.
Andy Roddick
The only pressure I feel is what I put on myself.
Andy Roddick
In the States, tennis is sixth or seventh on the totem pole as far as sports go.
