Roddick to catch the 'Tennis Tiger'
(China Daily)
Updated: 2005-08-03 05:58

Roddick sees his situation differently from long-time Tiger Woods chasers Vijay Singh and Phil Mickelson, noting, "They are playing a course not a person. It's a little bit different."

At the same time, Roddick pondered yet another Wimbledon ouster at the hands of Federer and said, "If he's not around, who knows?"

Roddick struggled at Indianapolis two weeks ago, losing to compatriot Robby Ginepri in the quarter-finals and skipping Los Angeles last week to rest.

"I wasn't mentally or physically prepared for Indianapolis... just the mental toll of playing pretty intensely for a month straight," Roddick said. "I went in there and tried to wing it and I paid the price.

"I went home, rested, recovered, put in a good week of training. I feel recovered now. The whole goal is to play well at the Open. You try to work hard, find your comfort level and hit your stride."

Roddick is among those happy that London defeated Paris for the rights to host the 2012 Olympics. That means the Olympic tournament in seven years will be on Wimbledon grass and not the red clay of Roland Garros.

"Selfishly, the difference between playing in Paris and playing at Wimbledon was tremendous for me," Roddick said. "I can't say I was disappointed to see London get the bid."

But Roddick was disappointed to learn the US Open will not be using electronic line calling devices this year as had originally been planned.

"I think they should. There's no reason not to," Roddick said. "It would be great to be able to challenge calls. It would add drama and take out the human error. It's not going to take a lot longer. I don't see a lot of downside."
