What does Andy Roddick need to do to win another Grand Slam event?
He’s strong, versatile and competing in the shadow of two guys who don’t appear to be going anywhere. Roddick says he’ll ditch a lesser tournament here and there to focus on the majors and the Davis Cup, and play more assertively off his opponent’s serve rather than counting on his own bazooka blasts to win every battle. “Constant aggression. That’s going to be my mantra in 2006,” Roddick told Charles Bricker of the Fort Lauderdale Sun-Sentinel in December. Any other approach might leave him in a long-running gig as No. 3.
