Roddick says his ankle will be fit for Wimbledon

Jun 15, 2009, 16:44 GMT

London - Two-time finalist Andy Roddick says the ankle he rolled at the weekend will be fine for the start of Wimbledon in a week. 'It'll be alright, certainly in time for Wimbledon,' the American told Britain's Sky. 'There's nothing serious as far as long term so it was good news considering the situation.' Roddick, who lost Wimbledon finals in 2004 and 2005 to Roger Federer, was forced to quit his Queen's club semi-final against James Blake when he made a mis-step and turned his ankle. The number six said he is taking anti-inflammatories and icing the injury, supervised by trainer Doug Spreen and doctors. He thinks he will be a 100 per cent in a few days. 'We only get two grasscourt tournaments a year so it was pretty disappointing to walk off in one of them but at the end of the day the priority is Wimbledon and I had to think about that, so I'll be fine.'
