Tough match for Big Johny in Houston as it took a tough three setter to defeat Jack Socks (world no. 119).
John didn’t concede a single break in the entire match to blast 15 aces on 18 service games.
From Isner
“I’m sort of a streaky player. I play very well for a month-and-a-half stretch, and there will be some stretches where I don’t play so well and I get down in my confidence a little,” said Isner. “Matches like my first one and this one today are ones that go a long way for me.”
Next vs Berankis
Big Johny will play Berankis (ranked no. 77) in the semifinal from Lithuania that has defeated Haas 6-3 6-3. This will be the first match between the two.
