Honestly, I'm very surprised at Andy Roddick's improvement and indeed, career turnaround. I was always a guy that of course was awed by his seeming effortless skill and power, yet criticized him for his quite pathetic mental game. He had such monster skill, really second only to Federer, but he consistently lost the mental battle, and thus, the match.
Regrettably, I missed the Federer/Roddick epic at Wimbledon (I was working). And I very much regret that. But I'm very excited looking ahead to see if Roddick can build upon his improvements. That also is my problem with James Blake: a guy who has a lot of skill, and gets built up, but fails to succeed consistently.
