This is honestly some of the best tennis content out there. Hope the podcast blows up.
It'd be cool if Andy made a Roddickcast in the vein of the Manningcast, but for tennis obviously.
Isn't that what this is?🤷
@@ST-xg3gyNo. the Manningcast is talking and analyzing while watching.
Im so glad you have a podcast now man... Tks for sharing these stories
I fell in love with tennis thanks to Andy Roddick, not Rafa, Novak, or Roger, but Andy Roddick.
Same. My goat
This is really interesting. Always thought he retired a little too early, but more power to him if that's what he wanted to do.
When I think of your retirement -- the heartfelt things you said after your last match at the US Open -- I think you did it right. Federer was there one day, gone the next. Rafa is pulling out of one tournament after another. It just seems like a shame that they're basically fading into obscurity without having said "Goodbye." So I'm happy for ya...think you retired with class, and I'm glad you're leading a fulfilling life. Power on!
Andy is a very engaging story teller. Good for you!
Love listening to Andy speak. 💪
I really enjoyed it when you did commentary at Wimbledon a few years ago (I'm British) You've got a real talent for talking ( like John Mcenroe) I hope you can do that again if you get the chance.
Andy was a great player! He was just unfortunate to be playing in an era of the three greatest players who have ever played...playing him.
Andy, I’m really loving your podcast. Such candid and authentic accounts that really bring to light the experience you had and makes it relatable to us. I remember watching you play live at the 2010 Wimbledon fourth round against Yen-Hsun Lu on court two, an epic five set match. My friend and I were really cheering for you. Keep up the great content!
Thanks for this podcast, you are my fav player of all time, i remember when i was a i kid i woke up in the night to watch your US OPEN final. I always picked you in any carreer of tennis videogames (you won multiples Wimbledon BTW :D ). Thanks for this stories. Big hug from Italy.
Loving the podcast Andy and the interesting insights you and your guests bring. I'm sure it'll go from strength to strength.
Game changing content for Tennis fans. Amazing player, but Roddick may have found his second career and could be bigger than playing career. Thank you elevating the sport off the court!
Brilliant interview! I love Andy and I’m a Scot 🤣 I love the ‘other’ Andy too of course and no matter what people say or think about his decision not to retire (yet) this interview highlights why we all have different approaches and reasons for big life decisions! Mr Roddick’s was triggered by a painful shoulder brushing his teeth apparently! Awesome channel 👍
luv ur personality andy (among other things)
Respect.
Roddick is still a hottie ❤
All different gravy? That's a new one.
Classy move he didn't announce it until after Clisters retired so it wouldn't take anything away from her
Stifler u rock ❤
😂 the next Wimbledon after he retires, Roger and Rafa lose early 😂😂😂 that was your opportunity man 😂 you coulda beat Weakvak and Muzzle back to back. 😂😂😂

Hello my friend you still think after all this years that Djokovic is the third best player of all time (after your big favourite Nadal, and Federer) because I know you love Rafa and always believed that Nadal is the greatest tennis player of all time. At least this was the case when you used to be on my channel years ago. But fast forward Novak has broken all kind of records do you truly still believe that Djokovic is the third best player of all time???
Stakhovsky's homophobia shocks me... never able to get past that... don't wish him dead, but will never like him.
Built his career on beating Bernard Tomic…. Lol
So Novak and the fear of Lord Tomic ended this man's career? Heh
Roddick owns Cheatvak
@@goldwolf0606 Cope on
did roddick get a hair transplant?
andy may be better analyst and more entertaining than McEnroe, he is that good
he is more relevant now! He has actually played the current players!His description of playing Nadal is prescient!
Sounds like Andy's mind got the best of him.
Love Andy but Pete still ended it the best
Andy gave up too easily and didn’t want to put in the work. Which is fine. It’s kind of like Anna Kournikova but not to that extreme.
Andy is a former #1, a Major winner, and one of the all time great players. Tennis viewership rose as his game started to decline, so many young viewers don't remember Roddick's prime years with the huge serve and laser beam forehand. Hell, he bageled Nadal at the US Open. I don't think he gave up easily at all, I think he retired when he lost the motivation to push through the pain. Roddick was/is a beast!
Yeah lost its magic it was time
So Andy decided to retire when Novak beat him. He knew that if a player of Novak's caliber could beat him, he really didn't stand a chance of winning any big tournaments. If anything, this gives credit to the weak era we find tennis in since Roger's retirement and Rafael being chronically injured and away from the game.
He meant that if he wasn’t capable of beating the best, then it wasn’t as fun anymore
no, he said he thought he played very well(apart from the service at times) and lost 6-1 6-2 on his favorite surface and court and Novak and other guys were still "young" and improving while he was declining so he realised that he doesnt have a slam chance in the future
