In addition to the shirt sleeve logo, Roddick will also drive a Lexus for personal use and will appear in a Lexus ad campaign. The sponsorship will also include opportunities for Lexus to support the Andy Roddick Foundation, which assists and educates children in reaching their dreams.

"I am excited to work with the entire team at Lexus," said Roddick. "I have always thought Lexus vehicles were the best on the road, and I am psyched that I will be representing their brand on court, as well as driving a Lexus when I am home."

"We're very excited about our partnership with Andy Roddick," said Deborah Meyer, Lexus vice president of marketing.

We're also proud to support Andy's efforts in helping children in need through the Andy Roddick Foundation."
