Andy Roddick was forced to retire with left knee pain while leading Stanislas Wawrinka of Switzerland 4-3 Tuesday in the second round of the Shanghai Masters.
The fourth-seeded Roddick, who limped into the post-match news conference, quit after wasting a break point.
"I just felt I pushed off, and then Michael (Novotny, ATP trainer) came on court and did some tests and advised that it probably wasn't worth the risk," Roddick said.
