Isner bows out quickly after marathon match

Tennis Betting Lines

06/25/2010 - Wimbledon, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - John Isner's second match at Wimbledon didn't last nearly as long as his first and it also marked the American's exit at the All England Club.

Thiemo De Bakker of the Netherlands took advantage of an obviously tired Isner and rolled to a 6-0, 6-3, 6-2 second-round victory on Friday.

Isner was coming off his epic three-day, five-set, first-round marathon against France's Nicolas Mahut. The 23rd-seeded Isner posted a 6-4, 3-6, 6-7 (7-9), 7-6 (7-3), 70-68 victory in the first-round match that set all kinds of records.

It started Tuesday and ended Thursday in a battle that lasted a total of 11 hours and five minutes. The fifth set alone, which started Wednesday after darkness had initially halted play on Tuesday, took a mind-boggling 8 hours, 11 minutes to complete, including 65 minutes of action on Thursday.

De Bakker, who went five sets in his first-round match on Tuesday, needed just 74 minutes to polish off Isner on Friday.

Isner looked stiff and needed attention from the trainer during Friday's match. He clearly didn't have anything left in the tank and lost the first set in just 16 minutes. It didn't get much better, as De Bakker broke immediately and Isner finally held serve for the first time in the third game of the second set.

Still, Isner battled through when he could have just walked off the court and no one would have blamed him.

Isner fired up a record 112 aces during his first-round match, but on Friday didn't muster one. He won less than half of his service points and was broken seven times. He didn't earn a single break point against De Bakker's serve.

De Bakker won 45 of his 55 service points, including 11 aces, as Isner's movement was sluggish.
