Impressive Roddick crushes Frenchman Serra

American Andy Roddick made a confident start to his bid for a second U.S. Open title as he crushed Frenchman Florent Serra 6-2 6-1 6-3 to reach the second round at Flushing Meadows.

The ninth seed, who won the Masters Series title in Cincinnati this month, hit 10 aces, one serve at 148mph and made only 10 unforced errors as he romped to an impressive victory.
“I felt great,” the 2003 champion said.
“I only hit for a couple of minutes this morning because of the rain but I am glad my form carried over from Cincinnati. I am playing comfortably right now, and I feel good.”
Roddick was beaten in the first round by Gilles Muller of Luxembourg last year but after a cagey opening, a repeat shock never looked likely against the world number 44.
