His tennis scores and matches have made him a favorite in his game. His serve is only a part of what makes him such a fantastic player to watch out for during the 2010 Australian Open. He has been known to serve pretty fast, at about 130-50 miles per hour. In fact, his serve has become something of a legend, especially his initial ones in the matches his plays. They are now known under the name of Roddick serves because he partially stops the serve in eliminating some of its motion. Seeing it is an amazing thing, especially for those who are tennis aficionados.
There are other attributes of his skill set that have helped him to hone down his style. It seems that no matter what kind of a career you go into, the really good people in your industry always seem to have a certain kind of style, and tennis is certainly no exception. After his first serve, Roddick goes all out and uses slices and angles and anything else he thinks will knock off his opponent. Other things about his serves making them unique are the spins, which are heavy, and a serve/volley combo that often confuses whoever his competitor is.
However, because people do know his style so well, they nitpick his lacking originality in moves and counter moves, which can be disappointing for the diehard fans. His latest coach is sure to make him his best just in time for the Open. He has helped to improve upon volleying and his backhand, which Roddick has been slowly improving during his professional status.
Perhaps what makes him such a great player too is his charm on and off the court. Such moves and demeanor are sure to make a tennis legend to go down in the books with Agassi and Born and others too.
