How steep Roddick's fall has been. I'm not sure he'll stick around for 2013 if he keeps up these results.

I think his perisitent state of injury is contributing to these losses, but there is definitely a fall off.

Back in 2009, he told Donald Dell that he would retire if he ever fell out of the Top 15. Asked about that in 2010, he said that was a private, off the record remark that never should have been reprinted, but he did add...

“I don’t think I’m the kind of guy that’s gonna stay on the tour just to be on tour. Just to exist. As long as I feel like I can keep winning tennis tournaments - I’ve won two this year - as long as I feel like I can enter a tournament to win a tournament then I love playing. I feel pretty lucky to play. But I don’t think I’ll stay and do the retirement tour, so to speak.”
