Isner and Querrey to lead US Davis Cup team

-

NEW YORK, Sept 4 (Reuters) - John Isner and Sam Querrey will spearhead a new-look U.S. team in their Davis Cup semi-final in Spain later this month.

The duo will team up with the doubles pairing of twins Bob and Mike Bryan for the Sept. 14-16 tie on clay.

Isner and Querrey will take on the daunting pros- pect of filling the two singles berths after the retirement of Andy Roddick and the unavailabi­lity of Mardy Fish, who pulled out of the U.S. Open this week because of undisclose­d health issues. “This one is the ultimate ask in current Davis Cup tennis,” U.S. captain Jim Courier told a news conference on Tuesday.
