Quite a cliff-hanger! Julian's instinct for survival was on a par with his best-ever win when he surprised Federer at the Paris Masters. But Isner will be a different matter. He cant afford to give all those free points by DFing as often as he did last night.

I really hate Roddick's attitude towards pretty much every tournament that's not a major. All he ever talks about anymore is getting match play, and he rarely if ever seems interested in actually WINNING the tournaments he enters. Perhaps this is why he's so spectacularly underperformed at pretty much every major since Wimbledon 2009, since it was around this time that it seems he first started displaying this attitude. Maybe it's Larry Stefanki's influence on him, who knows.
