Wimbledon 2022: Andy Murray crashes out in second-round, loses to USA’s John Isner
In contrast to his third-round exit last year at his home Grand Slam, the Briton felt his game and his body were prepared for a second-week run this fortnight.
In contrast to his third-round exit last year at his home Grand Slam, the Briton felt his game and his body were prepared for a second-week run this fortnight.
The Spaniard, beaten by Carlos Alcaraz in last week's Madrid Open quarterfinals, returned to his favourite surface with straight sets win over American Isner.
It was Nishioka’s first win at Wimbledon after losing in the first round three times.
It is to be noted here that barring the US open, neither of the three Grand Slams have a tiebreaker in the final set and the match keeps on going until one of the two players takes a two-game lead in the final set.
Del Potro dropped his first set of the tournament against 11th seed Isner, who was playing in his maiden quarter-final at his home Slam.
"For me, this could very well be a good loss. I need a little rest," Isner said.
The top seed served out the match to love in the 10th game of the third set, clinching victory with a powerful serve down the line that handcuffed Harrison.
The 6-foot-10 Isner is at number nine in the ATP world rankings.
Isner never got a break point in the fifth set.
Nadal got his revenge after losing to Isner in the Laver Cup.
