Isner doesn't have a tank or heart.

Dude has more heart than all of you combined. Do you realize how hard it is for John to stay in tennis shape at his size? He busted his arse at UGA to get where he is. He never won a title until his Senior year. He stayed for his last year in order to bring the team title to UGA. It's amazing how much pro athletes get shite on when people don't have a clue

Well said. Call him a servebot or whatever, but not everybody is meant to be top five. I like seeing the college players do well. The guy had a great career at UGA, has made nice bank and I think has a pretty hot GF. We should all be losers like him.

His Davis Cup match this year against Tomic in Australia on grass was a great effort in a really tough environment. I will never question the guy's heart.

I like how you jump to his defense and if you do not think I don't have a clue, you're mistaken.

Isner shows no desire to return serves which is classified as no heart in terms of laymen terms.

You have to have a heart to be ranked top 20 but his refusal to work on a part of his game that needs it is puzzling. I hate watching him go into his I can't mode. It may be coaching, psychological, or just cant but it needs to be addressed. That is where the no heart comes from.

He has heart, but I don't like him.

I think 2004 and 2005 were okay years for tennis. Hewitt, Roddick and Safin were still going strong at that point and Agassi was pretty good as well even though it was old as dirt. 2006 and 2007 were the real weak years. Roddick finished #3 in 2006 despite the fact that he only made it past the fourth round of a slam once that year. And in 2007, Ivan Ljubicic spent most of the year #3 in the world. He might be the worst #3 player ever.



The fact that Hewitt and roddick were two of the best speaks for itself.

Unfortunately she hasn't been that slim in a long while. She's had a girlgut for about 5 years.

What does the fact that a washed up, oft injured 34 year old Federer is still top 3 in the era currently being dominated nay Djoker?? Is Djoker going to have astericks by his last 4/5 GS because everyone else sucks?

In the No-Heart rankings, Querrey is clearly ahead of Isner, despite what happened Saturday.

I bet almost my entire Wimbledon winnings (a lot) on Cibulkova +130.

Pray for me boys, just couldn't pass that up.

ETA: First set Dominika 6-3, serves for the match gets broke loses set ugh

Cilic cruising in the 1st. Johnson-Federer match has been pretty entertaining so far.

Nishi is playing at about 50%. Props to him for toughing it out, but he can't win like this. Dude is made out of the same stuff as Derrick Rose.

Keys just took the first from Halep in a tiebreak. Hopefully she can keep it up in the second.
