American John Isner fought off match points in the two tiebreakers to beat Polish qualifier Lukasz Kubot 4-6, 7-6 (9), 7-6 (7) in 2 hours, 50 minutes. Isner served 24 aces, but failed to break Kubot once.
Next up for Isner is No. 3-ranked Swiss Roger Federer who received a bye in the first round. Isner need to serve well as he is been doing lately . and make sure not to
let Federer play his game. This should be very good match whoever the odds favorite the swiss for the simple fact that he needs the win more than Isner.
