Isner is the career ace leader in the history of the men’s tour but is perhaps best known for the marathon match at WimbledonJohn Isner retired from professional tennis after playing at the U.S. Open, bringing an end to a career that included one Grand Slam semifinal appearance and a victory in the longest match in the sport’s history.
NBC 5 caught up with Isner on a local tennis court playing for fun with his son Hobbs, the first time he’s held a racket since his last match at the U.S. Open more than a month ago. “The one match everyone talks about in 2010, I will never, ever forget that match, even though I might want to. 11 hours and 5 minutes in 2010. I don’t want to call it a fond memory because it wasn't that much fun playing in that match. It was just a war of attrition out there. But being a part of it, looking back on it was very cool,” Isner said.As he looks to the future, he says his time will be mostly spent in Dallas with his wife Maddy and four children, ages five and under.
“I think the older two will remember. We've made some incredible memories with everyone. You know, this year we went to Australia with the whole family. The whole crew also went to London and then last year we did Madrid, Rome, Majorca and Paris with the whole family," said Isner."It's going to come full circle with me. I mean, having the family that I have now, I know that's going to be me, who knows what my kids get into sports-wise.
