Tennis star Andy Roddick, the last American to win the U.S. Open in 2003, discussed Coco Gauff and Ben Shelton making the finals and semi-finals.
September 8, 2023, 3:15 PMAndy Roddick of the United States hugs the trophy after defeating Juan Carlos Ferrero of Spain in the men's finals, Sept. 7, 2003, at the US Open tennis championships in Flushing Meadows, N.Y.Coco Gauff and Ben Shelton ahead of their toughest matches of the U.S. Open tournament: Don't listen to "dummies like me on TV."
"I think it's an imperfect scenario," Roddick said of the climate change protestors whose demonstration disrupted play . "I think for Coco, she said I'm just going to treat it like a rain delay -- you don't know if it will be 10 minutes or an hour and a half -- obviously, she handled it as well as you could."
"Maybe be practice-specific about her next opponent Aryna Sabalenka, who is just full of power and will try to go through Coco on Saturday. I think just more of the same. I don't think you change too much up," Roddick imparted. "She's been on such a good run this summer -- partnering with [coach] Brad Gilbert post-Wimbledon has been a really good move for her."
For 20-year-old Shelton, who is from Atlanta, Georgia, and who is just one year younger than Roddick was when he won the U.S. Open title in 2003, the former champ suggested, "He can't be subtle with anything."
