I was pissed when Harrison lost to em.
I watched the game live and honestly, Isner deserved it.
I didn't know Harrison and he's a good baseliner with good lift on the forehand, solid backhand and really good serve. Well, I didn't see the first two sets but from what I watched, Isner showed some heart, defended with passion (that rally at 5-5 in the fifth
) and he was far more creative (dropshots, volley) while Harrison is the typical baseliner relying on his forehand to win points. So basically, Isner really surprised me, I thought he was just a giant with a serve but his forehand is really efficient (thanks to his reach) and he returns very well (above all on his backhand when he "blocks" it). He's really complete from what I saw even if his backhand's still the weakest point of his game.
Had to talk about Querrey too. Dude is so much fun to watch, I will follow him from now on ! :hyena:
All out attacking player, great power, goofy attitude and the feeling he gives no fukk at all on the court. LMAO. His first set was godly with winners all over the place
But Simon's a frail frenchy with impeccable stamina. I still don't understand how Simon pulled that win but seems like Big Sam tired out and was then a little less clinical, less efficient, less powerful... And with Simon who never surrenders it's crucial to be on top of your game from the first to the last point. Dude is a tick who plays all in rhythm. Breath included.
