John Isner  

Tsonga dodges the Isner bazooka as he saves two match points to snatch the win. The Frenchman, constantly backed by his home audience lost the first set to Isner who was pinning the corners with his serves and forehands. The next two sets were grinding tie-breaker sets which Tsonga managed to grab with the help of a few mini-breaks of the Isner serve. Tsonga hammered 12 aces, got 56% first serves in and clobbered 60 winners to win the match, 3-6, 7-6(1), 7-6(3)
