Tennis ace ANDY RODDICK has reneged on a deal to give a tennis lesson in the nude after one woman bid $11,200 (GBP7,000) for the chance at a charity auction.

The offer from Roddick was auctioned off at one of Sir Elton John's AIDS Foundation fundraisers earlier this year (08).
But Roddick has backtracked over the naked training, insisting it was just a joke.

He says, "First and foremost, I am not going to be playing naked tennis. It was said in jest and the lady who bid was really cool afterwards."

First, i am in high support of fundraising for  foundation. It is definitely a good cause.

Second, i would have been completely steamed if i were that lady. Having bid that much  and not getting what i bid on would be a kick in the arse.Again, not that i wouldn't have bid something for the charity, but at least have the balls... oops sorry he didn't, to carry through.  If he wasn't going to go through with it he should never have offered. I guess it's a good way into tricking people to bid so much money.
