Isner Falls to Fabrice Santoro in Australian Open

The magician overpowers the giant

With hackish moves and crafty play, Santoro sends the fuzzy yellow ball spinning and dancing around the court in ways that would drive just about any player out of his mind. John was unable to get a grip on the match, and fell in straight sets, 2-6, 2-6, 4-6. Fabrice Santoro went on to get annihilated by Fedex in the next round, who showed the magician some of his own magic tricks.
