Isner was a sturdy test by the second set on, very pesty.
Korda had a mental blip to break himself in the second, but toughed it out and kept the radar on par.
He made the necessary crucial returns to serve for the match, where Isner jumped to 0-40* with 2 FH winners. But Korda won 5 straight for his first ATP semifinal and a 2-0 record over Isner.
A lot of players feel the wrath of a shallow breakthrough 1-run point amassing, but Korda has backed up the RG success.
He didn't bypass any learning stage.
He's worth the ranking he will be getting.
Another very good on-court interview by whoever the interviewer is, very pleasant.
