It’s all love between Brooklyn Decker and Mandy Moore when it comes to Andy Roddick.

After Moore, 39, showered ex-boyfriend Roddick, 40, with praise on Monday, August 28, to celebrate the 20th anniversary of his U.S. Open win, Decker, 36, returned the favor. The women shared a friendly exchange in the comments section of Decker’s Instagram tribute to Roddick, whose career was explored in a lengthy GQ Sports profile.

“@mandymooremm You’re a class act,” Decker wrote. “You were a huge part of his life (and actually there ) during that time .”

Moore had shared her well-wishes for Roddick, whom she was dating at the time of his big victory, in a social media upload of her own earlier that day. “Andy was a really formative part of my young adult life and although we’re not in touch, I was really moved by this article reflecting on the 20th anniversary of his US Open win and the kind of life he’s lead since,” she wrote via her Instagram Story alongside a link to the article.
