If it hadn't been for Roger Federer, Andy Roddick would have been the grasscourt master in each of the past two years. A three-time winner at Queen's, the big-serving American has finished runner-up to Federer here in each of the last two years. However, this season hasn't been the best for Roddick and he recently lost his grip on the Stella Artois trophy, losing in the semis. Confidence hasn't been great due to his poor results and the 'A-Rod' may well struggle to match his past feats.
