Isner sucks. He would hold on serve and would lose every game he didn't serve.

Fair enough whatlez, me, personally wouldn't be able to win a game off him. How much would you beat him by in a 5-set match?

Yeah I'm not a professional tennis player, just saying that he holds serve, but cannot break. Therefore, the marathon game.

Is there a problem with having a difficult time breaking serve? The way i see it is he has a better chance of breaking serve than someone does of breaking his serve. He is a top 10 player, and he uses his size and plays the most efficient game style, which happens to be win 3 breakers, just like all other big servers when they play tough opponents.

The thing about the behemoth types is that if they go all out in the return games, eventually it'll come off and they'll break. Therefore, have a greater chance of breaking than they have of being broken against 'good to average' players.

I still reckon last years match was a bit better. Hopefully we can see many many more great matches between these two.

Still these two are developing a great rivalry. 5 set thrillers at last year's AO,  US Open and this year's AO.

I really like Warwrinka's game at the moment. He's taken it to the next level in the past year and I feel he is now a genuine chance to win a grand slam in the next 3 years. Who knows, he might even do it this week. Can't see him beating Berdych though ;)
