ATP - John Isner v Jesse Levine
8 July 2008
Preview By Tipster Sankekur (Poland)
Big fellow Isner should eat easily on this surface Levine if he didn't party too much on pretty Newport area. Levine is too weak for grass. Small with weak forehand. He won't hold his serve for long and he didn't show when I was watching him skills that could gain a point when Big John will stand under a net. And his game in Wimbledon don't convince me. He defeat some challengers or old and fat players in qualifications and then Young who still is a kid and don't really know how to play in mature tennis world and then 2:3 loss to Melzer, I didn't watch that game but this two sets that he won looks to me more Jurgen errors rather than Levine skills. Maybe I'm wrong and he improved but as I watched him few weeks ago it was far away from Big John ability to crush enemies on grass and hard courts. Isner is probably hungry for wins on grass becouse this year he played for matches and won only one against Kevin Anderson and lost to Gulbis, Stepanek and Mahut, which all three seems to be three class better than Levine. Isner also always is performing much better in home country and I count that American air will help him too. He is tall, serving strong as hell and it is always hard to pass such giant when he goes to the net. Of course when his serve is off he is nothing on court and would loss to anyone, but still I count everything is fine and he will end this with two tie-breaks, or maybe sooner. Big John's serve will work and I don't see much chances for Levine who is less talented player in my opinion.
