High-level tennis requires traveling to the four corners of the world. Players frequent exotic destinations where the mercury can reach highs.
Following his many years on the ATP circuit, Andy Roddick spoke about the various skin cancers he suffered. Repeated exposure to UV rays could have gotten the better of him.
In his podcast Serves with Andy Roddick, the former world number one returned to the importance of protecting the skin from the sun. The sunscreen manufacturers thank him.
“I have suffered from different types of skin cancer since I stopped playing. I had a squamous cell tumor removed from my lip probably five or six years ago, I never talked about it. Put sunscreen on your children, especially if they play tennis. The problem will not present itself when the child is eight years old, but it could present itself when the child is grown and is 38 years old. Greener pastures ahead. I got into the habit of getting checked over and over again. For the moment everything is well “declared the American.
