Re: The "...wow" thread
you have said it all rather nicely; I think his heart and head and body are elsewhere and he just can't get it done. All the little things and nigglies are taking a toll and that's that for me.

Re: The "...wow" thread
To add insult to injury, Monfils just lost to Kubot. I just can't right now. Andy lost a great opportunity. I agree that he just needs to step back and reasses his game and career.

Re: The "...wow" thread
I listened to the ESPN crew talk about Andy after his loss and all I could do was nod in agreement at everything everybody was saying. We've all been saying the same things over and over the past few years and it's just a broken record now. All you can do is sigh and  and wonder when Andy will listen to what anybody's been saying. Andre Agassi is right on the money: "Andy's a more complete player now, but he's also a lesser player."
Although I loved loved loved the Andy we saw at Wimby 2009, I often miss the old Andy Roddick, the one-dimensional aggressive baseline grip-and-rip game that was more dynamic to watch, was more fearful for others to face, and lo and behold, he won USO playing that way.

Re: The "...wow" thread
Probably been mentioned lots, but if it hasn't then let me depress you all even further. Since 09 Wimbledon where he came so close and looked rejuvenated, he's lost to the following players in Grand Slams:
Isner
Cilic
Gabashvilli
Lu
Tipsarevic
Wawrinka
Lopez
How depressing is that? Just look at that list of players.

Agree. Fire Larry hire Tangy as the new coach.
