Cilic Outserves, Outlasts Roddick — A T.O. Jinx?
Marin Cilic served 20 aces to Andy Roddick’s 15, and although Roddick fought back from a two-set deficit to push it to a fifth, the lanky 21-year-old Croat came out on top in the quarters of the Australian Open, knocking Roddick out of the first Grand Slam of the year.
I have to think Terrell Owens jaunt through Australia was a jinx on Roddick. Owens, one of the NFL’s best receivers but such a pain that no team wants to keep him, even appeared in an ESPN interview with Roddick last week. Roger Federer, for his celebrity shoulder rub, was seen with Prince William of Wales.
Who do you think is keeping the right company?
