Corentin Moutet had a rather weird day in Newport when facing John Isner. The erratic Frenchman lost 6-3 6-4 in the 2nd round and at a certain point, for no reason, he attempted a behind-the-back underarm without success. After trying the shot, he said: “I lost my mind, didn’t know which tactic to try.”
That’s weird. Here is the video.
