What is Roddick wearing on his ankles?
I noticed Serena Williams had them on too.

They're called ankle braces...a special lace up boot to support the ankle. http://www.asoankle.com/index.cfm?fu...AsoInformation

Thank you. I thought they must be for ankle protection but hadn't heard of injury for either of them. Wonder if they prevent injury?

I mean I wonder if they really work, or if the prevention aspect is just marketing.

Roddick has had ankle issues since his junior years... he has worn them almost his entire pro career. Just too many injuries, and it wasn't worth ruining a career for that extra 1/10 second of speed...

Anyone wear these? I have pronated ankles, looks like this might help support them.
