John Isner vs. Mardy Fish - 12/7 in GSO!

Join us for a night of high-level, fast-serving tennis action as Greensboro's own John Isner takes on the veteran tour pro Mardy Fish! The event will be held in the Greensboro Coliseum on Friday, December 7th at 7:30pm!

But that's not the best part… for the limited time of October 22nd-28th, USTA members residing in North Carolina will have an exclusive chance to buy tickets before they go on sale to the public!

I'm playing who in the second round?

Isner rolls over South African Rik De Voest, unseeded and ranked 146, in one of his first ATP-level straight set squash outs.  John gave Rik a ticket back home with a 6-3, 6-3, 7-6 (7-4) wave of his racket.  In a post-game press conference John noted that he'd never heard of De Voest.  Okay, having only been on the tour for a few months that's not a huge surprise.  One thing we can be sure of though - he knows the guy (or should we say immortal tennis titan ) he'll be facing in round three. 

Isner Rolls on!

In an unprecedented showing of smack-down serving, Isner lays down 34 aces as he pummels Jarkko Nieminen of Finland into the ground in the first round of the US Open  with a 6-7 (4), 7-6 (4), 7-6 (5), 6-4 over the native Fin.

Beating 26 seeded Nieminen is a huge step for Isner, who's ranking moves ever closer to the top 100 as he wins his first US Open match ever.  To think that just a few months ago his pro career had barely begun and he was ranked 800+!
