Roddick to miss Cincinnati Open

Andy Roddick was forced to quit the Cincinnati Masters due to injury on Tuesday.
“I fell asleep last night and woke up with the lights still on,” Roddick said on Tuesday. “I kind of passed out and I’m guessing I was in the wrong position. I woke up this morning with something in my neck and shoulder and any kind of activity is causing it to flare up. It’s kind of a helpless feeling.”
The former US Open champion has worked hard to add more controlled groundstrokes and volleying to his record-breaking serve. But his persistent shoulder injury, which contributed to his withdrawal from the $2,615,000 Ohio event, has raised doubts about whether his decision to miss the Olympics will pay off.
