Former tennis pro Andy Roddick‘s wife, actress Brooklyn Decker, recently stated, “I know we would never push our kids into one sport—exposing them to as many as possible is the way to do it (as well as everything else like theater and art). Personally for me, knowing I’m not sure when my next job will happen, I would love my kids to have more stability in their career.”
Roddick was a huge tennis star in the late ’90s and early 2000’s, which brings us to these photos of Andy sweating it up during a shirtless tennis practice.
Check out Andy while practicing in 2008 and 2009 ahead of the Australian Open at Melbourne Park in Melbourne, Australia.
