John Isner: 'We should soak in moments where Federer, Nadal play'
In an interview to Tennis.com, John Isner revealed why he did a poll on Twitter about who would win the Wimbledon semi-final match between Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal. The American player said: "I actually don’t tweet that much about tennis. But there’s going to come a time when these legends aren’t playing each other anymore. As fans of tennis in general, I feel we need to soak in these moments and realize how amazing of an era we’re witnessing right now."
Isner won the Newport title once again, this year. On his win, he commented: "If you’re a fan of not just tennis, but sports, you should come to visit this amazing place. From walking through the Hall of Fame to watching this great tennis event to walking around town, you can really enjoy this city. Go on the mansion tours or enjoy a day on the boat. There’s so much happening here, especially in the summer."
On his tough 2019 season, Isner added: "After I hurt my foot, it was a tough pill to swallow. I haven’t had an injury like that really in my entire career. I was just telling myself that I’ve been really fortunate in my career to have stayed healthy, being such a big guy. A lot of that is because of how well I take care of myself."
