Milos Raonic and John Isner shake hands after Isner defeated Raonic in five sets on Sunday at the U.S. Open<\/p><\/div>Once again, Canada\u2019s top ranked tennis player Milos Raonic<\/a> could not stop John Isner. Raonic came back to force a fifth set, hoping to overcome the curse that seems to come into play when facing Isner but failed to find the magic combination needed to get the job done.<\/p>\n

Isner and Raonic are considered the two of the best servers in the game today, but it was Isner who came out on top with powerful serves to defeated Raonic 6-3, 3-6, 4-6, 6-3, 2-6 during fourth round play at the U.S. Open<\/a> on Sunday.<\/p>\n

The U.S. Open is the last Grand Slam of the season, and Raonic was the last Canadian remaining in the field. For Raonic, he was hoping for a win after John Isner<\/a> brought an end to his run at Wimbledon this year in four sets, but it wasn\u2019t to be.<\/p>\n

In six matches between the two, Isner has prevailed in five. At 6 ft, 10 inches tall, the No. 11 seeded overpowered the No.25 seeded Canadian to advance to the next round. This is important information for punters looking to place live bets on future tennis matches, such as those ofered by Betway Sports<\/a>, especially if the two are paired against each other in the future.<\/p>\n

Commenting on the loss and his track record against Isner, Raonic said,<\/p>\n

“I\u2019ve definitely struggled with him, specifically. There\u2019s other guys that are big servers that I\u2019ve played better against. For me, I think the biggest thing is there\u2019s not guys that make me hit returns above my shoulders. That\u2019s sort of the hardest part for me. Today, I was much more successful going further back, buying my time, but I wasn\u2019t sharp enough when I needed to be.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
