Q. For a player that’s won a French Open and finals of the US Open, Juan Carlos Ferrero, Americans haven’t really warmed up to him much. Do you have any idea why that is?

ANDY RODDICK: I don’t. I’m not sure. He’s obviously — he’s obviously a very deserving candidate for respect and for acknowledgment. I’m not too sure, you know. I don’t know.

Q. Style of play? Demeanor on the court?

ANDY RODDICK: I don’t think so, because every time you say “style of play,” “demeanor on the court,” you can find someone who they have embraced who has probably close to the same qualities. So I’m not sure, I don’t know.

Spain’s tennis sensation Juan Carlos Ferrero and American Andy Roddick took part in an early morning tour of Madrid Monday in a 1954 Mercedes-Benz Adenauer roadster, as part of a promotion to launch the inaugural Tennis Masters Madrid.

Cruising with the cabriolet top down, the two popular stars traveled in style to the famous Palacio de Oriente, a royal palace, via the Gran Vía. Also joining Roddick and Ferrero on the Mercedes-Benz tour was Manolo Santana, the tournament director. Roddick and Ferrero are just two of the big names in the main singles draw at this year’s Madrid event, which begins with first-round action Monday.
