After losing a second-set tiebreak, Andy Roddick needed some confidence.
His two opponents, Rajeev Ram and the stifling Georgia heat, were bearing down.
"The first game of the third, I was down a couple of break points," Roddick said. "If he breaks the first game of the third, I think it's a long way back because he started serving a little bit better in the second set. That was probably the pivotal moment in the match."
Roddick, the No. 1 seed, endured blistering temperatures to beat Ram 6-1, 6-7 (1), 6-3 in the second round of the Atlanta Tennis Championships on Thursday.
