-

Of course, everyone is going to remember that match in 2010, and rightfully so. I like to think that, since that match, I’ve done a lot of good stuff on the court performanc­e-wise. But for a lot of people, that’s definitely the lasting image of my career. I think if I can keep going further here, I can maybe squash that.”

John Isner, after reaching his first Grand Slam tournament semifinal by defeating Milos Raonic in four sets Wednesday in Wimbledon. The 33year-old holds the distinctio­n of winning a 70-68 fifth set in Wimbledon in the longest match in tennis history.
