Andy Roddick’s Nicknames and On-Court Behavior!
Andy Roddick was sometimes referred to as A-Rod, a play on the moniker of New York Yankees baseball player Alex Rodriguez, which refers to his first initial and the first three letters of his surname name.
On the court, he frequently yelled at umpires and linesmen. At the 2001 US Open, he became enraged when a ball dropped wide at a critical juncture in the fifth set of his quarter-final match against Lleyton Hewitt (he was serving at *4-5), calling umpire Jorge Dias "a moron" and receiving a code penalty for audible profanity. During his third-round match at the 2008 Australian Open, he yelled at umpire Emmanuel Joseph, shouting,
You're an idiot! Stay in school, kids or you'll end up being an umpire.

Andy lost his cool again in the 2010 Australian Open when a ball he did not play was called out on match point but was later confirmed to be in after a video review. After the match, he continued to argue with the umpire but subsequently admitted that he was mistaken.
Later that year, at the 2010 US Open, he launched a rant at an official after a foot-fault ruling, which he eventually lost against Serbia's Janko Tipsarevi. Roddick yelled at the chair umpire during his loss against France's Richard Gasquet at Indian Wells in 2011.
In 2011, Andy Roddick was handed a penalty point in a second-round match against Philipp Kohlschreiber at Cincinnati Masters, which resulted in a vital break of serve in favor of his opponent. Roddick received the penalty point for ball abuse after slamming a ball into the stands in exasperation after being warned earlier in the match by umpire Carlos Bernardes for racquet abuse. This sparked a new round of altercations with the umpire, with Roddick voicing his discontent with the umpire's decision. Roddick was defeated in the match.
