Roddick was a finalist in Doha earlier this year and lost in the Australian Open semifinals last week to Roger Federer. He won Memphis in 2002 and was runner-up in 2003 and 2007.
The tournament field will feature eight of the world's Top 25 ranked players including James Blake, Juan Martin del Potro, Mardy Fish and Sam Querrey. Marco Baghdatis is making his first trip to Memphis as a wild-card entry. Pete Sampras will be playing Lleyton Hewitt in a charity exhibition on Feb. 16 to benefit St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.
"Andy is playing great tennis right now,'' tournament director Peter Lebedevs said. "He's a crowd favorite every year, so we are happy to give sports fans another chance to see him in action.''
