BRISTOL, Conn. (AP) — Tennis Hall of Famer Andy Roddick is joining ESPN for its coverage of Wimbledon and the U.S. Open under a multi-year deal announced Monday.
Roddick, the 2003 U.S. Open champion, will work as a match commentator and studio analyst, starting just before play begins at the All England Club in late June. His championship in New York was the last time an American man won a Grand Slam singles title.
He retired as a player in 2012 and was inducted into the International Tennis Hall of Fame in 2017.
Roddick was the runner-up at four Grand Slam tournaments — losing to Roger Federer each time, at Wimbledon in 2004, 2005 and 2009, and the U.S. Open in 2006 — and collected 32 singles titles, finished nine consecutive years ranked in the ATP’s top 10 and helped the United States win the 2007 Davis Cup.
