Video: Roddick Takes Charge At The US Open

The US Open has had it's fair share of problems this year, from rain delays to players not feeling protected by the tournament.   Today was supposed to be another waterlogged day, but thankfully fans were greeted with blue skies, as the sun and the stars (tennis stars) came out ready to play.  Unfortunately, when Andy Roddick and David Ferrer stepped out on Louis Armstrong Stadium, Andy found a bubble on the court that caused yet another delay.  Initially he was very calm about the situation, even apologizing for bringing up the issue, but he rightfully "flipped his wig" when he took the court the second time, only to find the bubble still present.  Roddick then proceeded to lead Ferrer, the umpires, ball kids, and fans, over to court 13 to finish the match.  Check it out!

Andy Roddick Tries To Outdo His Wife

Andy Roddick ditched his traditional socks and ankle braces for a pair of teeny black ankle socks today in his match against Feliciano Lopez.  The change really had Twitter buzzing, was it really a new look, or a joke?  Roddick won the match 7-6 (2), 6-7 (5), 6-4 and during his on-court interview he was asked about his fashion risk (or faux pas).  

Always the comedian, he said that he's just trying to "flash the calf" because people say his wife, model Brooklyn Decker, has nice legs and he doesn't want to be second in the family.

What do you think of the new look?

Andy Roddick and Novak Djokovic played an exhibition match in Seoul, South Korea today.  Novak won the match 6-2, 6-4 and judging by the pictures, it seems like they had a lot of fun in-between.
