Roddick Confirms Connors as New Coach

Conversations this week between Andy Roddick and Jimmy Connors have convinced the former No. 1 American (the younger one) to take on the legend as his new part-time coach, with brother John remaining on as Roddick's full-time travelling coach.

Connors resurfaced last year when he joined the BBC commentary team, and now seems ready to be back in the spotlight.

"I'm genuinely excited about the prospect of working with Jimmy," Roddick told The Times Online. "My brother John will be with me full-time but Jimmy will join when he can and I certainly want him around in the build-up to and at the US Open."
