"&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;By C.W. Sesno, SI.com&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;[slideshow] &lt;em&gt;Note: All photos AFP/Getty.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A new year, a new look for Andy Roddick. The 29-year-old unveiled a new hairdo at the Kooyong Classic, a tune-up exhibition for the Australian Open that starts on Wednesday.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;There are a few plausible explanations for how and why this disaster has happened:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;1) With a 30th birthday around the corner, Roddick is clinging to youth.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;2) Conversely, he has embraced what seems to be a receding hairline.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;3) He's trying to boost his &lt;em&gt;Little Giants&lt;/em&gt;-esque intimidation factor.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;4) Jet-lag + electric hair trimmer = Bad decisions in Australia.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;5) Social pressure to match his wife's weird head-thingy.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;6) The Birdman calleth.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;What do you think of Roddick's new 'do? Sound off in the comments and let us know.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
