Rafael who?

Andy Roddick was the top ranked American player for 393 consecutive weeks, and won the 2003 U.S. Open Championship. He also reached the U.S. Open final one other time, and the Wimbledon final 3 times, losing each one to … well, it doesn’t matter, what’s important is that he brought humor, heart, and a certain cockiness to the sport (sometimes to his detriment).
He’s also one of the pro ambassadors of Athlete Ally, straight athletes who stand in solidarity with the LGBT community.
He announced his retirement at the U.S. Open three years ago, and the game has missed his spirit … and derriere.
Today is his 33rd birthday, so let’s pay tribute to that one particular and still awe-inspiring national treasure.
