Quality player and high quality person. Thank you, John, for everything you've given to us.
Amazing Carreee and achievment. To win Grand Slams isnt a small thing!
how can you say he is a quality person? You don't know him personally.
There’s only one thing left to say:
Thanks for everything John!
Thank you Big John,as an Italian fan I will always remember the 2010 Wimbledon match against Mahut I was just 9 years old...it's sad when your generation players retire(Berdych,Isner,Kohlschreiber,Almagro,Ferrer Baghdatis etc.)😢
Mahut and Isner were mediocre players. As an Italian, you should be pulling for Sinner, even though he isn't a real Italian because he grew up in the German-speaking part of Italy.
@@Zenigundam He may be not a real Italian, but your are definitely a proper idiot with such an irrelevant and disrespectful comment.
2010s is nostalgic !!! Andy Roddick too....Tsonga,Berdych,Ferrer....so many retired countdown...dont forget US Open is last tournament for Wawrinka too....Miss 2010s old time...cuz it was my first time to love and notice tennis ....
@@Zenigundam What a poor comment.
If that’s what you remember of John then I wouldn’t say you are that big of a fan
My coach always say....,Sometimes is more difficult to be a great man, then to be a great player! You got both, thanks John!
One of if not the greatest serve in men’s tennis history- Bravo for being a true professional always
humble guy. great ambassador for the sport.
Great career and a legend in the sport! 🎉
A great man, a great player!
Thank you John Isner from Germany. I loved to watch every minute of you vs Anderson 2018 in Wimbledon
That was great!
I'm sorry to see him go....many blessings to his life after the game he loved....💙
Because of this man, they changed rules. That's special.
what rule may i ask?
@@real3744 At Wimbledon 2018, Anderson beat Isner in the semifinals winning 26-24 in the 5th set, and was gassed in the final. So they changed the rule so that when you reach 12-12 in the final set, you play a super tiebreak.
@@real3744 I think the Wimbledon match in which Isner beat Nicolas Mahut 70-68 in the fifth had a bigger influence on the rule change. That match lasted over 11 hours and had to be played over three days. Isner, of course, was completely gassed after that and had no chance of winning his next match.
He will be remembered!
My fav player in men's tennis, such a great character with such great services and unique play.
Legend of the game
John, Roger and Rafa were the reason I tried out tennis. Been tennis coaching for 12 years thanks to them. Thank you infinitely John 🙏
it was beautiful, you brought so much to the sport and I enyojed watching your game with serves and volleys more then the 20+ rallyes
John was a great player. Who can forget the longest match against Mahut at Wimbledon all those year's ago .
Yes.
Great career, great guy. Wish John the best. ❤️👍👍
Gentle Giant behind the great player.....
He deserves a better organised farewell especially in his home country.
Thank you John !!!!! I saw him play twice and met him twice too. Always super nice and cool. I remember talking with him about wrestling (he's a big fan). Wish him the absolute best ❤
Poor guy -- he wishes he had made a bigger dent in the universe. Hard right now for him to see how important he was to the sport. Time will show him I hope.
Very entertaining player - I loved watching him play live - wish I was there at Flushing Meadows this year to see him off. May the road ahead rise up to meet you John !
John ❤❤❤
Legend mate!
Thanks John 💗💗💗
Thank you John!!
awesome match. nice effort, John. let's go MMOH!

كان لاعبأ رائعا لسنوات طويله وهو رقم صعب لرافا نادال وفيدرر وحتى جوكوفيتش خاصه اعوام 2009_2015 سنفتقده كثيرا وسنفتقد الارسالات الساحقه 💔 ولكن هذه هي الحياة لكل بدايه نهايه
Q grande isner x dios, hombre record, gracias x todo
The greatest Ace-maker of all time!!!
The goat generation really are almost gone 😢
Goodbye gentle Giant
Congratulations John! You made America proud.
Great interviewer too
Bravo à isner, ce champion aurait mérité le court central
What a carrer
Enjoy your retirement John it's time to enjoy the family, i enjoyed your game and shant forget Wimbledon you and Mahut boy what a slog but you helped bring in the first to ten in the last set tie break.
Fan from India, Kolkata.❤
Same!
Congrats to Michael Mhoh. His mum is Geraldine O'Reilly from Co Monaghan.
Bye gentle giant... Enjoy your life after tennis!
He didn’t win a major but he should go into the hall of fame just for his serve
He did well in his career!. He never made it to Tennis' elite nor won a slam, But he was a well known player nonetheless.
He was top 8
@@Emmanuel19994 👏👏👏
He won a master title, meanwhile great players like Nishikori 's biggest title is only ATP500
The announcer was wrong, this wasn't his final event. The doubles match later was that.
Does anyone remember this legend being 2 sets up on Nadal at the French open
2 sets to 1. Was in 2011. He made an unbelievable match but obviously it wasn't enough against the beast
It's ashamed they didn't meet more on clay, Isners kick Serve on clay was a nightmare to deal with, and it gave him plenty of time to run around and hit big FH of his own, I remember that match vividly as Nadal as far back as possible still couldn't reach most of those serves, even just gave up on 3 that were right toward him but bounced 12ft high into the stands.
Hey John did win 70-68 so he didn't do too bad
No, he lost that match. Anderson went on to lose to Djokovic in the final.
@@akizaizinskii Isner beat Mahut 70-68 at Wimbledon in the longest match in ATP history. What does Anderson have to do with anything?
He's not playing doubles?
He did!
Did he lose?
yes
@@thomastrimaille4277he was up 2 sets. Crazy
Please take Venus with you
lol...
He has been saying that he wants to invite Trump to his matches. It's not gonna happen.
What a terrible Interviewer
Could have been better, I agree.
Interviewer is so bad at her job
Zero grand slams...zero times world number 1....zero atp 1000
Still my favourite
He Won an atp masters 1000, in Miami. Check your facts.
Karlovic > Isner etc.
What are u saying😂😂
No John no! This is not a right behavior for a man like you! The crowd is standing ovation and you are crying..And can not talking because you lost..Michael is congratulating you and you cover your face..What was that? Contrary it’s time to be happy and share this happiness with the crowd and Michael..He is pointing you refusing the applause of people pointing you with his finger and you did not said even one word for him..Who are you John?To me ,unfortunately you are not deserving the crowd’s applauses and respect..You messed up your great carrier with your nonsense attitude in just five minutes…😢😢😢
Congrats mate, dumbest comment I’ve ever read
ugh, go away
Totally clueless comment. "refusing the applause of people"?? "not deserving the crowd's applause"?? Wow, just wow. Go watch some other sport where maybe you know something.
Let's be honest. Just serve and no skill... He made his career out of the big serve... I've never seen him play a decent rally... It's a shame on sports if someone calls him a decent player.
Dude, he would smash you to bits in tennis. Big serve is important. He Won a masters 1000.
He won absolutely nothing in his career. Mmoh is a very average player, but I fully expected him to beat Isner, who has no game. The only thing he can do is serve, and that's only because of his proportions and the height of the net.
Pretty uncool comment.
@@Flavorino I'm not trying to be cool; I'm speaking facts, and if Isner has a problem with it, he can come talk to me about it, and I'll tell him exactly what it is.
Oh come on now. He didn't win any Grand Slam titles, but he did win a Master's title in singles and several Master's doubles titles, along with quite a few other singles ATP titles and over $22 million dollars in winnings, which is not exactly "nothing."
He won 16 ATP titles, including a masters event. That's more than 95% of all people who ever played tennis. He also won enough money to retire at the age of 38 and live comfortably for the rest of his life.
Lil bro has never picked up a racket huh
