Can't wait to see the highlights

try reading the article, genius.  he said that he choked it away. he said he played all the big moments badly. he usually owns up to his bad play about as well as anyone i've seen. he seems to get frustrated by the obnoxious questions from reporters, but i never really see him blame the losses on anything but himself.

deathwish...please post us some links from you tube or other articles showing where Roddick is unsportsmanlike. He is always complimentary of his opponents at most stages of the match and afterwards. It is actually one thing I've admired about him b/c he's had some rough losses and taken them well publicly. Drinking losses away in private is another. but what we dont know...

I agree with Buggin, I think the problem is the shark-infested press rooms. You try answering the same question in different ways repeatedly.

IMO Roddick has just been getting plain unlucky lately... lots of his losses in recent grand slams are to middling players (Kohlschreiber, Tipsarevic, and the chronically underachieving Gasquet) who simply play unconciously good tennis on that given day. Last year when Roddick lost at Wimbledon Gasquet was not missing a single shot and pulling insane backhand winners out of no where.

Also, many forget that Tipsarevic nearly knocked off Roger Federer at the Australian Open earlier this year in an epic 5 set classic. This loss is not entirely Roddicks fault. Sure he should have won, but its not as if he is undeserving of the #6 seed. Janko played the big points well, Roddick did not. Simple as that.

Tennis is tough both physically and mentally. He has nothing to be ashamed of.
