John Isner is the player with the most 7-5 and 7-6 sets in history, not one comes close ! Most of his sets have 7-5, 7-6 figures, even when playing against the likes of Federer ... I think the reason is that his serve is so un-returnable that he's almost never broken, yet all other aspects of his game are so average that he's unable to break his opponent either .. inevitably things always go with serve most of the time ! Crazy ....
+88feji Yea that's a good point, his serve is wicked but I guess if you can't dominate in the rally's it makes it more difficult to close out sets and win matches
88feji: he needs to improve his Bhand more. make it deep on the court and consisten to a point were he doesnt need to run around the Bhand and to hit a 4hand.
Great video! I love to see the matches from this view, it's much more real! Isner had Zverev here couple of times, with those match points on Zverev serve, but also at 4/1 in 3rd set tiebreak and that easy drive volley! But this is tennis, sometimes we lose close match, sometimes we win! It hurts as much as it feels good to win, that's why this sport is extremely tough! Not just physically but mostly mentally! You need to come back the next day, or next week and grind all over again, and hope next time it will go your way!
Love Zverev's backhand, he can do so much with it when he wants to. Isner's groundgame has really become stale. His backhand is not even close to being a weapon, and he seems too shy with his forehand. He used to pound the ball on that side, but now he is evolving his game to that of 2012 Andy Roddick; more spin and fewer winners.
Shame Isner doesn't have decent coaching. If you have a 6'9" guy, force him farther in on return of serve, to get the point over faster. His reach will make it way harder for the server to get past him, and he's closer to the net for an approach. What's the guy doing behind the baseline? He ain't quick-footed. He should get coaching from Agassi. Bring out the turbo ball machine that Agassi's father used to torture him with and blast Isner from up close until he's comfortable on the baseline to return serve. Then play games where if he hits more than six times, he loses the point.
Isner is terrific, man, he should really work on his stamina training, he isn't moving well on court, he can definitely be a world champion ig if he tries to work on the baseline movements
Pandanucca the latest born player to win a masters before Zverev was Cilic who is only one year younger than Djokovic. Zverev is the first player born in the 90s to win a masters tournament and he is '97. No need to play that achievement down with Nadals numbers (like what is that supposed to tell us? That there were far more successful young players? well no shit sherlock...), it is still a standout looking at the drain of the last 5-10 years.
What he meant is that there still are other accomplished top 10 pros who are much older than Zverev - like Nishikori and Raonic - who didnt manage to win a masters tournament yet, while he has already won one now. He was not talking about generally no one else accomplishing something till the age of 20.
Pandanucca he said which other top 10 pros still haven't achieved... Its true. He didnt say no one did. You just can't comprehend statements, its poor.
0:45 - After Isner's mishit return of Zverevs serve, Zverev proceeds to hit the ball in his pocket to the ballboy, yet the return that Isner hit had yet to bounce, it was still in the air, this surely is a foul!?? You can see isners returned ball land at the back after Zverev hits the ball in his pocket to the ballboy! The point is not over until the ball bounces out, regardless of its trajectory, even if it is deemed to bounce out!
Thanks to his serve mostly. Look at his stats: www.tennisabstract.com/charting/JohnIsner.html. Most of his unforced errors come from his forehand, as you could also see in this video.
Wout de Zeeuw Ok, I get your point but it is still harsh to say that he has no feeling for the forehand what so ever. His forehand is better than most players forehand (in general/out of the ATP included)
Wasn't trying to put him down, it's just that the way his forehand is put together in terms of moving parts, he's making it difficult for himself. There's a lot of movement in the wrist/elbow rather than the shoulder/elbow, so the time window in which to get it right is small. So you're seeing a lot of forehands hit that are not hitting the sweet spot of his racket or hit with the frame.
It's strange that he turns around the BH to hit so many forehands. Especially with "poor" footwork, he ends hitting that forehand to close to the body and on the run. His backhand looks more consistant/stable.
My only irk about these 2 players is that they're so big they just overpower ppl which makes it a LITTLE less impressive vs Ferrer, fed, Santoro, etc. It's said that for every inch taller you hit an extra 2 mph on your groundies. I wish I can be 6'6+ bc that'd make the game so much easier
But there's still technique to power. Also, being that tall, you carry more weight, which in turn, you lack defensive skill and speed. An averaged height aggressive baseliner can have an off day in terms of serve and/or groundstrokes but can still potentially win a match with defense. If a taller than average player has an off day, it's going to be a lot tougher to win.
I think people need to cheer on the Zverev hate. There is nothing wrong with people getting fired up. On a more important note, does no one else think it’s pathetic how empty this stadium is for a men’s final? Esp the last final ever at crandon park? Less Half full is awful. Esp with an American playing. I think more people came to the women’s final to see Sloane win
They should make people close out the set with the same racket after they smash it. That'd teach them to treat their equipment with respect and stop having stupid tantrums. Even so, well played Zverev, you're definitely full of potential.
Isner definitely let this one slip. Up 4-1 in the final set tiebreak and made some poor decisions to hand the victory to Zverev. This one would have hurt for sure.
@@laurinraver295 not really. Ya they're clean strokes, but compared to some players even outside of the top 200, his strokes are trash. And actually yes being tall can make you good. If you pay attention, almost all matches he wins (and even loses) goes to 7-5 or 7-6, showing that the only reason he is hanging in there is because nobody can touch his serve, while at the same time he can't return for the life of him
@@icebear326 yes his serve is his strongest weapon. But he is up there because he also has decent strokes. You can’t say he is just good because of his height. Netherless he uses his height extremely well.
@@laurinraver295 idk I just think that if isner wasn't as tall as he is he wouldn't be at the top ranks. Because besides serving and volleying, he doesn't really have a huge weapon. So if you take away his height he could still have a good serve but it wouldn't be nearly as big of a weapon, and also volleying is very ineffective in today's climate and the only reason it works for him is because he's so tall
Pretty much everything that is wrong with men's tennis these days. If they're going to use these powerful rackets, then they should only get one serve.
A lot of these next generation players like Zverev and Kyrgios need to get their act together and mature or else nobody will like them. Isner is so respectful even when he loses, he's humble and an unstoppable force with his service game.
i honestly have a better forhand than isner no jokes im being serious... correction I said that after watching half the video. it turns out his forhand is worse than some club level players. disgusting

+harrycook111 Your Welcome!

88feji T. Bi
88feji Karlovic has better serve with highest aces in the tour, but I think his game is much weaker to Isner
Huu Loi Nguyen thats absolutely right
88feji: he needs to improve his Bhand more. make it deep on the court and consisten to a point were he doesnt need to run around the Bhand and to hit a 4hand.
that scream @3:51 lmao
Some of the best tennis highlights I have ever watched! Very well done on this video! More please!!
two beasts...awesome match

Zverez should use more slices against the tall guy. Keep more balls low. After some heavy kicking shots. Mix it up
How about that racquet smash @ 2:41 , Hit the "LIKE" Button! Did you enjoy the video?
RacquetComedy i enjoyed the racket smash
Great angle! Thank you very much.
Shame Isner doesn't have decent coaching. If you have a 6'9" guy, force him farther in on return of serve, to get the point over faster.

Barnstable, isner is a perfect guy for tennis, he can be a world champion if he gets proper training
lol stop
6’11
6’10”
Isner is terrific, man, he should really work on his stamina training, he isn't moving well on court, he can definitely be a world champion ig if he tries to work on the baseline movements
Very good video ! Thanks !
These guys didn't know they would be playing the next final of this same event in 2018
who won?
@@agostinafernandez4433 John won
6:33 was that ball really out though?
Albert no
I just figured out that it was not perfect.
Wow that ball was so in
Look again with 0.25 speed. Ball's shadow can be very confusing.
Yup, definitely out
This is a great angle to watch tennis.
Zverev just won an atp 1000 tourament title at age 20 while other top 10 pros still haven't achieved it. This kid is gonna go far.

lol Isner beat Zverev in the Miami final... It crazy how they go from playing in the 3rd round to the final in 1 year
It’s 2024 and this guy has won nothing except a few Masters 1000s and choked in grand slams. Still a fantastic player
We miss your cruise vlogs mate!
I miss them too man believe me!! 😭 I’m saving up to go on more! That year was the last vacation I had lol
3:31 thought was my phone lol
You got any Federer matches shot from this angle?
Can't thank you enough!
Isner's serves are just 😍😍
So incredible view angle...

Yeah... Hadn't noticed. Seems like a foul. Though an incredibly rare one to call.
best angle to watch TV tennis.
2:41 racket smash alert ⚠️
One year later the final of this same tournament..
isner's height makes his body seem to be all over the place
John's forehand technique looks shaky, he has no feel in it at all.
Wout de Zeeuw Is that the reason why he is able to compete on such a high level :D ????

I know im late, but nice camera.
Lol thought it was 2018 final, amazing hands for the camera lol
Isner is the created character that has one stat fully maxed out.
can no coach teach isner how to break serve?
The final in 2018
2:41 Zverev smashes racket
My only irk about these 2 players is that they're so big they just overpower ppl which makes it a LITTLE less impressive vs Ferrer, fed, Santoro, etc. It's said that for every inch taller you hit an extra 2 mph on your groundies. I wish I can be 6'6+ bc that'd make the game so much easier

This is what Sunday’s final will look like.:(
why was there so many empty seats?
Is this court small???
zverev the future nr 1.
Year later and beats him in the final
A spectacle game
hitting backhands from the middle of the court is screwed up
Isner wears himself out running around his backhand.
Alexander should have really won this match... In my opinion John got very lucky to win.
What??? Are you high?
I think people need to cheer on the Zverev hate. There is nothing wrong with people getting fired up.
On a more important note, does no one else think it’s pathetic how empty this stadium is for a men’s final? Esp the last final ever at crandon park? Less Half full is awful. Esp with an American playing. I think more people came to the women’s final to see Sloane win
Great camera angle. I can see how poorly Zevrev moves his legs. He should watch Federer.
John or zverev
I can’t see anything
For some reason, I can't this German kid. He's wagging his hands after his opponent makes mistake, like he owns the world....
Huy Luu That's literally no different than anyone else lol
Archehh Again- not any different than anyone else. It was a close match
Sebastian Vettel does it too, maybe it's a German thing.
GAMAYNGAPRINCIPE you didn't see isner doing it, he just did a silent fist pump which is the respectable thing to do
David Poudrier If I was choking to a 20 year old I wouldn't be too excited about the match either
They should make people close out the set with the same racket after they smash it. That'd teach them to treat their equipment with respect and stop having stupid tantrums. Even so, well played Zverev, you're definitely full of potential.
I don’t think it should matter, most tennis pros buy their own equipment
LMAO no, most ranked pros are sponsored
I mean if they are being really toxic then the referee can DQ them, a broken racquet doesnt hurt anyone.
For someone who is so tall, John isner’s movement has to be one of the worst of the ATP players.
SP hate to tell you this but generally the taller you are the worse movement from a certain poin
What is with the ball girl 5:02
It’s a sign they make. I don’t know what it means but I think they do it the other ball boys and ball girls. You can see she does it again at 5:22
If Isner just worked on his forehand and return of serve, he would have more titles.
Zverev was very sure at that matchpoint by isner
Zverev needs to look at his coaching box after every point he wins. That's weak. Rely on yourself, and draw strength from your own mind.
Isner definitely let this one slip. Up 4-1 in the final set tiebreak and made some poor decisions to hand the victory to Zverev. This one would have hurt for sure.
idk where would isner be if he isnt 200cm tall lmfao
imagine only being good at serving, but the only reason youre good at it is because youre tall
Man, tallniss doesˋt make you Good. Isner has wonderful strokes.

Why is Zverev wearing a bib
Did he give the kid a busted raquet?
+itubeutude Yea, I'm not sure why but I think he knew the family
Pretty much everything that is wrong with men's tennis these days. If they're going to use these powerful rackets, then they should only get one serve.
Isner will get his revenge Sunday
Jason Lee you are correct!!
Zverev was and is the Better Player
2:40 really? #nosportsman
How is it not?
a Z and then a V in the name? Robot
A lot of these next generation players like Zverev and Kyrgios need to get their act together and mature or else nobody will like them. Isner is so respectful even when he loses, he's humble and an unstoppable force with his service game.
Isner had this game won twice and still lost it
This is Mischa Zverev not alexander.
+Cxsualty Gamin Mischa is the older brother, Alexander is the younger one that is playing, they also call him Sascha
Isner hit so many unforced errors.
Wtf? Give the kid a new racquet Zverev
イズナーってほんとサーブ以外雑魚すぎだよな笑
イズナーサーブ速えw
Why does he wag his finger like that. He's so cocky.
打球音やば
Wow this match is absolute garbage for 1000 final lmao
Problem with tall guys is all they can do it make good serves but can't return for shit. Too slow.
too much finger waiving zverev doesn't look good on you
i honestly have a better forhand than isner no jokes im being serious...
correction I said that after watching half the video. it turns out his forhand is worse than some club level players. disgusting
TBH zverev is like a crybaby , overreacting every time.
And there's alot of money on the line
very bad mannering from Zverev. U shouldnt celebrate most of the points coming from an oponent unforced error (unless its a match or break point f.e.)
2:42 Zverev smash the racket
Thanks
