As we called it yesterday Big John takes on “my fellow American” Sam Querrey in the Memphis final at nine thirty tonight.
What we didn't predict was the fact that Querry would be favourite. At puntinplay we think the bookmakers have got the prices the wrong way round. We make Isner favourite and if you didn't take the advice to back him before the tournament then step in now. 2.25 is the wrong price.

Querrey has never played Isner on the tour but in a match that looks sure to be decided by tie breaks Big John is expected to pull through if only because at 6'9” he is three inches taller than “my fellow American”.
