Murray, now 52 in the rankings, failed to break serve once against 2018 semi-finalist Isner, who unleashed 36 aces and 82 winners in total.
“He didn’t give me lots of chances,” said Murray, whose previous earliest exits came in the third round in 2005 and 2021.Isner, 37, was gracious in the aftermath of his first win in nine meetings against the Briton. “I am most definitely not a better tennis player than Andy Murray. I might have been a little bit better than him today,” said the American.
Isner also took his career aces total to 13,724 to sit just four behind the record held by Ivo Karlovic. Third seed and French Open runner-up Casper Ruud, who was scheduled to face Djokovic in the semi-finals, was knocked out by 112th-ranked Ugo Humbert, 3-6, 6-2, 7-5, 6-4.All rights reserved.
