I saw him here against Isner a couple weeks ago. He lost in two but still, every single game was a battle. Isner was serving 130mph+ and I'm sure he got some aces but they were few and far between. This kid was on him the whole match.

We're going to be seeing his name for a while. And that's a good thing.
