Wimbledon Update: Will John Isner Break his Longest Match Record?

John Isner's CV has yet to include a grand slam win. Expectations are high on the 30-year-old being the only American in the top 20. He is, after all, "the hope" since the retirement of Andy Roddick, Andre Agassi and the legend Pete Sampras. But Isner hasn't even reached the semifinals of a grand slam and the only notable performance he exhibited was at the US Open in 2011 where he lost in the quarterfinals. It wouldn't be fair to compare Isner to the retired greats, of course, but the good news is, Isner may be on his way to another record-breaking feat. And we're not talking about a grand slam win here.
