An Open Letter to Andy Roddick

Dear Andy,

I hope that today, instead of mourning your loss to Roger Federer, you are celebrating the irrepressible skill, talent, and artistry that you exhibited during the men’s finals at Wimbledon. You are an extraordinary athlete, and it was a thrill to see you play what must have been some of the best tennis of your life.

And yes…one day soon, your name will be up there as a winner of the tournament.
