John Isner: Second round

 John Isner speaks to the media after the 6-7(5), 7-6(5), 5-7, 7-6(5), 6-3 defeat against Dudi Sela

Q. That was a long match, but I guess you're used to long matches. How are you feeling right now? It was tough out there.
JOHN ISNER: Yeah, I'm very, very disappointed right now.

Q. Do you feel in certain things you needed more practice or something would have helped you?
JOHN ISNER: No. It's all between the ears, I think. I had opportunities, of course. When I don't go for it, bad things happen. That was the case throughout the whole match, me not going for it. That's why I lost.

Q. You're still leading in aces, something like 70 aces. Your serve was great. How were the conditions out there?
JOHN ISNER: It was hot.

Q. You played him four times before?
JOHN ISNER: I don't know how many times I played him.

Q. Was there anything in his game that troubled you?
JOHN ISNER: No. Look, he won the match fair and square, of course. But, I mean, I knew what to expect from him.

As I said, I didn't go for my shots at all the whole match. So that cost me.
