Afterward, Roddick lamented his inability to handle the clay surface of Roland Garros.
"I move just horrendously out here. My first step is just so bad on this stuff," Roddick said. "I feel like I'm always shuffling or hopping or not stopping or something. So my footwork on this stuff now is just really bad."
Roddick is 0-4 on clay courts this season. Full Sunday results can be viewed here.
