JOHN ISNER RUMORS & GOSSIP

Isner's stay at Monte Carlo cut short

While Novak Djokovic was deciding to risk his recently injured ankle and play in the Rolex Monte Carlo Masters, John Isner was realizing he had taken a leap too far in trying to play here -- 5,410 miles from the scene of his title-winning triumph in Houston on Sunday.
