WASHINGTON (AP) -- Andy Roddick will probably avoid the drive thru this week.
Roddick admitted Monday that a late-night fast food meal after a match last week in Indianapolis was what slowed him down in a semifinal loss on Saturday to Frank Dancevic. At the time Roddick complained of "a stomach bug or something."
But Roddick says he started feeling better several hours after that loss, and proclaimed himself ready to play Tomas Zib on Tuesday in the second round at the Legg Mason Tennis Classic, a tournament Roddick has won twice.
"I'm getting better, should be all right by tomorrow," said Roddick, who added he never seriously considered not playing this week.
