Andy Roddick withdraws from Indianapolis with hip injury

Andy Roddick withdraws from Indianapolis with hip injury

Andy Roddick has withdrawn from the Indianapolis Tennis Championships next week, citing a right hip flexor injury.

That’s the same injury that prompted Roddick to pull out of the U.S. Davis Cup team’s quarterfinal at Croatia last week.

Tournament director Kevin Martin says he’s disappointed but he understands Roddick’s decision to put his health first.

Martin says he’s working to secure a commitment from James Blake, who’s ranked No. 17 in the world, to take the final wild card before the draw is released.

Tommy Robredo cruises through to semi-final clash with Monaco

Tommy Robredo cruises through to semi-final clash with Monaco

Tommy Robredo moved towards a third Swedish Open title on Friday by disposing of Russian Teimuraz Gabashvili 6-4 6-0 to reach the semi-finals.

The Spaniard, who won his first title on the Swedish clay in 2006, will now face Juan Monaco after Spanish top seed Fernando Verdasco retired against the Argentine at 6-1 3-1 down. The world number nine quit after struggling with a calf injury.

“I pulled (the calf muscle) in the first game of the match and it was really hard to play after that,” said Verdasco who was dominated by Monaco in the baseline rallies.

“The injury affected my serve and in the end I was forced to give up… (But) Monaco handled the situation very well and made it even harder for me. He deserves his semi-final place.”

Robredo took a 3-0 lead, having broken Gabashvili’s opening service game, and never looked back. The Russian fought bravely to get back into the set but failed and then ran out of steam.

The other semi-final will be an all-Swedish affair.

French Open finalist Robin Soderling continued his good run of form by beating claycourter Nicolas Almagro 7-5 6-3 and will now face wild card Andreas Vinciguerra who beat Austrian fourth seed Juergen Melzer 2-6 6-4 6-3.

The 460th ranked Vinciguerra, a finalist here in 1999 and 2000, has struggled for years with injuries and it will be his first semi-final appearance in eight years.
