After being asked by a local reporter at the China Open whether he is considering retiring, an irritated Andy Roddick responds: "I think you should retire." No. 15 Roddick fell to Kevin Anderson in the opening round, 6-4 7-5. The 2003 U.S. Open champion has not won a title since February and has been saddled with a series of injuries over the spring and the summer. Roddick, 29, only has 245 points to defend the rest of the year, so he still has a shot to finish in the Top 10 for the 11th straight year.
