What a point at 30-30 One game away at 5-4*.

All he has to do is break the Isner serve.

Fantastic punched backhand pass, I think I saw Kyle strutting!

Some of these second serves are utterly ridiculous.

Kyle had his chances in that game but some brilliant serve and volleying from Isner allows him to cling on.

Pressure back on Kyle. *5-5.

Crowd have woken up. Raucous yelling after Kyle spoons a backhand. And now it's 0-30...

Big strop from Isner after being told he's out of challenges following an ace from Kyle. Stunning pass on the next shot and it's 30-30.

Stunning second serve ace from Kyle - 122mph. And he makes it four points in a row to hold.

6-5*.

 Absolutely.

You feel that this tie-break - assuming Isner holds here - may well be pivotal.

Clutch time for Isner

Tie-break it is.

Kyle looks so self-assured when he gets on top of a point.

Nervous for this, Isner tends to pretty clutch in breakers.

Interesting to see Isner has lost slightly more tie breaks than he has won! Free points with the serve but no rest?
