American tennis star Andy Roddick got attention for more than his tennis game at the Kooyong Classic recently. Roddick turned up for the even wearing a mohawk. His reason for the new look had to do with facing the inevitable, as he has a receding hairline.

Roddick was quoted in online sources as saying, “I`m pretty sure I only have a year or two left with hair, so I decided to have fun with it while I did.” He hid the new hairstyle with a cap when he hit the court. He lost his match to French player Gael Monfils. This tournament was part of his preparation for the Australian Open.
