U.S. Open Match to Watch: Day 9
Monday, September 5, 2011 at 7:19PM
A men's round of 16 match between American, John Isner and Gilles Simon of France.
We'll find out with this match on Armstrong if anyone can tame the serve of John Isner. Isner has served his way through multiple tiebreakers to reach this point.
Simon has been getting better all summer and is trying to peak here at the Open.
These two have never played before. You can count on Isner going big with the serve and Simon looking to stay at the baseline and rally. Both are playing some of the best tennis of their career and it should be high quality action.
Prediction: I like Isner to win a couple more tiebreaks and win in 4.
