Harrison vs. Isner

Regardless of this Sunday’s outcome, Ryan Harrison already secured his return to the top 40 next week. Considered by many to be one of the best players of his generation, the 25-year-old American is finally living up to expectations. Taking a look now at Ryan’s campaign on this tournament, the 2017 French Open doubles champion reaches this stage of the competition after a 6 – 7 6 – 3 6 – 4 win over Kyle Edmund.

Playing at the BB&T Atlanta Open brings the best out of John Isner. In addition to his phenomenal 26 – 4 career record on this event, the former world no.9 made it to the final in seven of his previous eight appearances in Atlanta. Known as one of the best servers in tennis history, the 32-year-old didn’t drop a single service game so far on this event. Adding to this, Isner fired an impressive average of 1.40 aces per service game in his previous three matches in Atlanta.

These two players know each other very well. Not only are they good friends off the court but this is also their 8th official meeting with Isner leading on the h2h by 5 – 2.

Despite Harrison’s recent improvements, it’s impossible to go against Isner on this event. On the other hand, John holds the edge over this opponent after winning 71.43% of their previous seven encounters. With this in mind, Isner is the clear favourite to lift the trophy at 9/25 at Coral while Bet365 offers 12/5 for Ryan’s victory. Besides the value on John’s moneyline, placing a bet on his -1.5 Set Handicap at 26/25 is also a great approach for this final.
