Shanghai, Oct 11: Andy Roddick fought off a set point in the second set and held on for a 7-6 (3), 7-5 victory over Bulgaria's Grigor Dimitrov on Tuesday to advance to the third round of the Shanghai Masters.
The 10th-seeded American came back from a break down in the second set to level the score at 4-4 when the big-hitting Dimitrov put a backhand into the net after slipping at the end of a 43-stroke rally.
The Bulgarian broke back in the next game, however, prompting an angry Roddick to slam his racket into his tennis bag during the changeover.
