Andrew Stephen Roddick (born August 30, 1982) is a professional tennis player and a former World No. 1. He is the second highest ranked male U.S. tennis player in the official rankings of the Association of Tennis Professionals (behind James Blake).* He held the distinction of being the number one American for three years, but his relatively poor Grand Slam performances in 2006 have resulted in a fall in his current world ranking, which is now outside the top ten.
Roddick is known for his explosive serves, powerful forehands, and off-court charm and personality. He also holds the fastest serve record in professional tennis, clocked at 155 mph, or 249 km/h.***
Early life and family
Roddick, nicknamed "A-Rod," was born in Omaha, Nebraska and raised in Boca Raton, Florida. He resides in Austin, Texas. Roddick's father, Jerry, is an investor and his mother, Blanche, directs the Andy Roddick Foundation. Roddick's brother John was an All-American tennis player at the University of Georgia from 1996 to 1998 and currently owns and operates the Roddick-Moros International Tennis Academy in San Antonio, Texas, as well as being Roddick's coach after Roddick split partnerships with Dean Goldfine. His oldest brother, Lawrence, a chiropractor in San Antonio, was an accomplished springboard diver and a member of the U.S. Senior National Team. Roddick's family also encouraged him to play basketball and baseball; and, were it not for tennis, he would like to be playing professionally. More on [ Andy Roddick ]
