Not going to say too much here, but that when you have a big serve and can hit big off the ground, you give yourself a chance.  Isner has improved his ability to run down shots.  One difference between Isner and Querrey is Isner’s fight.  He can hit big when he needs to.

Djokovic wasn’t playing too bad, but he did play nervous tennis.  Apparently, a few double faults caused enough of a difference at Djokovic in the first set.  Djokovic broke in the second set and held on.  The third stayed even until late when Isner had a break chance to win the match, but Djokovic held on.  However, Isner got an early mini-break and served huge to serve out the match.

Final score: 76 46 76

Up next, Roger Federer face Rafael Nadal in the other semifinals.

Isner should move into the top ten with this win (he is currently ranked 11).  Djokovic will have no pressure to create an undefeated season with his second loss of the year.  His goal will be to play up to the majors.
