Roland Garros - Men's Second Round
Paul-Henri Mathieu d 10 John Isner 67(2) 64 64 36 18-16
It took Paul nearly 6 hours and 7 match points to seal the victory.
This is the 2nd year Isner has lost in 5-sets - last year to Nadal in 1st R.
Remember: Isner went 70-68 in the 5th at Winby against Mahut in '10.
Mathieu: I remember Mahut's match, so I just couldn't believe it was over.
I had match point. It was tough. Every time I needed to concentrate and...
Focus again on my serve, so when the match was over...
I had trouble realising it was really over.
