REVITALISED RODDICK TARGETS RECORD FIFTH QUEEN'S TITLE |

Press Release

Andy Roddick will target a record fifth AEGON Championships title at The Queen’s Club, 11th-17th June after rediscovering his form in Miami last week.

The American, who won the title in 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2007, and reached finals at The Championships, Wimbledon in 2004, 2005 and 2009, is now fully fit after a difficult year. He scored an impressive win overRoger Federer last week and can’t wait to return to the AEGON Championships.

“I love coming back to the Queen’s Club,” said Roddick. “There’s so much history there and it’s one of my favourite tournaments on the Tour. It’s hard to believe I’ve won a tournament as strong as this (the AEGON Championships) four times and I’d love to win it again.”

A hamstring injury and an ankle problem interrupted his Australian campaign and prevented him from building the momentum he was looking for in February, but Roddick is now looking forward.

“I feel like something good is coming,” said Roddick, who won the US Openand landed the World No.1 ranking in 2003.

He joins Andy Murray, Jo-Wilfried Tsonga and Juan Martin del Potro as early entrants into the field. To see a full interview with Roddick, click here.

The AEGON Championships will be broadcast every day by BBC Television and Eurosport, with coverage also on BBC Radio 5 Live and the BBC Sport website.
