Isner can afford to go after breaks because he gets to sit down for a minute because he has to get up and serve.

Isner Gets Second Wind

I first saw Fish play at Indian Wells in 2001 when he took full advantage of his wild card entry to take out the 15th seed, Mark Philipousis. He was just a splinter and looked to be even less than his 19 years. But he completely disarmed Scud in my opinion.

Farmer Tennis Classic – Harrison, Berankis, Kosakowski
