Isner takes on A-Rod!


John Isner vs. Andy Roddick final in Washington!

In an unprecedented run, John Isner reaches the final of his first ATP event, the Legg Mason Classic, by winning five consecutive third-set tiebreakers (sounds like an all-time record - can anyone confirm this?).  He was given a lucky wildcard as a result of Fernando Gonzalez's last minute withdrawal.  On the way to the final, he took down #73 Tim Henman, #47 Benjamin Becker, #189 qualifier Wayne Odesnik, #12 Tommy Haas, and #54 Gael Monfils.
