on Friday in five sets to move into the fourth-round in Melbourne.
Kohlschreiber, the No. 29 seed, looked fitter than Roddick in a 6-4, 3-6, 7-6(9), 6-7(3), 8-6 victory that lasted almost four hours.
Roddick let loose on chair umpire Emmanuel Joseph and "talked smack" to Kohlschreiber during the match, but that didn't aid the American who at the same time served a career-high 42 aces.
Roddick fought off four match points on his serve before succumbing.
"I took his best stuff for five sets and I thought I was going to get him to break or to fold," Roddick said. "I thought if I kept it on him long enough that that would happen. Tonight he played like a great, great player. His backhand was extremely impressive."
