The 2003 US Open champion, however, believes that players should not be allowed to make a second attempt at their serve as the toss of the ball indicates the start of one's serving motion. "I kinda think you shouldn’t be able to catch your toss, and try again. It’s part of the execution of a serve… Am I wrong on this?

You’ve definitely started your motion once the toss goes up," he tweeted. One fan replied by stating that it would unfairly penalize players who have a high toss. To this, the 40-year-old responded by saying that penalizing a player for his or her weakness was normal, taking the example of his backhand.

During his playing days, it was a well-known fact that Roddick's weakness was his backhand, an area his opponents looked to exploit during matches. "I got penalized for having a shitty backhand. Why should people not be penalized for weaknesses?" he asked.

Another fan disagreed with the American, stating that a high toss is not a weakness, but "a shitty backhand is," and proceeded to call it "not the smartest comparison."

Not the smartest comparison tbh. Roddick, in his usual witty and sarcastic way, vowed to fully understand the game of tennis.

2022 US Open - Previews While fans have been divided on Andy Roddick's views, he has found backing in two fellow professionals from different generations - John Isner and Martina Navratilova. Isner had the same views as his compatriot, though he worried that a rule change would affect those contesting the doubles the most. "YES 100%.
