[1/5] Aug 31, 2023; Flushing, NY, USA; John Isner of the United States serves against Michael Mmoh of the United States (not pictured) on day four of the 2023 U.S. Open tennis tournament at USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center. Isner had match point at 5-4 in the fifth but Mmoh was able to serve his way out of trouble and levelled with a drop shot. After a successful college career at Georgia, Isner turned pro in 2007 and went on to reach a career high of world number eight. He won the longest professional tennis match in history against Frenchman Nicolas Mahut at Wimbledon in 2010, which lasted 11 hours and 5 minutes and took place over three days. Isner finishes his 17-year pro career with 14,470 aces, a record that is unlikely to be broken anytime soon.
