5’9″ Israeli Tennis Player Beats 6’10” American

I would have never thought that Sela could beat Isner… Is this a replay of ‘David vs Goliath’?  Go figure:

American John Isner is out of the tournament as the No. 23 seed lost to Dudi Sela 6-7 (5), 7-6 (5), 5-7, 7-6 (5), 6-3. Isner has yet to make the second week at the All England Club and is 4-15 in five-set matches since his famed 2010 first-round match at Wimbledon that ended 70-68 in the final set.The 6-foot-10 Isner had quite a height advantage over the 5-9 Sela, but that didn’t help on this day. Isner clocked 45 aces in the match but couldn’t win any of Sela’s service games in the fifth set, going 0-for-6 on break points.
