More quotes by 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 think the medical term for the injury is 'the bottom of my ass hurts.'
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 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
Having two older brothers is a healthy reminder that you're always closer to the bottom than you are to the top.
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
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.
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
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 the most successful bad player ever.
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 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
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
Why would I get a wild card into an American tournament, (as the) top-ranked American? Why would that happen? That makes too much sense. Maybe I should play more Davis Cup, that's the story. Oh wait, I do.
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 know that I've ever been someone who's interested in existing on tour. I have a lot of interests and a lot of other things that excite me.
Andy Roddick
I always said if I had to pick one Grand Slam to win, it would be the U.S. Open.
Andy Roddick
Call me All-American, but I love Ham and Cheese sandwiches. And not just any old ham and cheese sandwich... My mother's is the best. I've tried many times to make these sandwiches on my own, but it's never the same.
Andy Roddick
For every bad moment I've had, there have been 25 positives.
