"It would have filled my heart to walk in there being one of them" - Andy Roddick shares his biggest disappointment in not winning Wimbledon

Capturing the Wimbledon title is the end goal for almost every professional tennis player, and former World No.1 Andy Roddick gave fans a glimpse of his heartbreak after coming close on multiple occasions but never quite getting his hands on the trophy.

The American enjoyed a successful career on the ATP tour, winning his sole Grand Slam title at the 2003 US Open. However, Roddick was never able to etch his name in tennis history as a Wimbledon champion, with the Omaha native running into a roadblock named Roger Federer each time.

The 42-year old recently took to his podcast, Served With Andy Roddick, to reveal he had never really gotten over losing several Wimbledon finals. Roddick reached the last stage at SW19 on three occasions, 2004, 2005 and 2009, but fell to rival Federer each time.

"My life probably today, beyond the way people view a career wouldn't be different so I don't think it changes much" began Roddick. "I'm so in love with that tournament that it would have filled my heart with love to walk in there being one of them, meaning one of the champions. So I would have been endlessly humbled by that.
"It's probably that coupled with 'I don't know if I'll be here again if I lose', when I lost in 04 and 05 in the final, I was pretty sure I would have another crack at it. And there's the Roger of things, it's like outrunning a rainstorm that you know is coming, right? And just not quite being fast enough."
