Isner given wild card
John Isner has been given the second of four men's singles main-draw wild cards into the Pilot Pen.
The 6-foot-9 Isner, who saw his ranking tumble out of the top 125 after being sidelined with mononucleosis, has moved up 31 spots to No. 55 in the last three weeks after reaching the semifinals in Indianapolis and Washington and quarterfinals in Los Angeles.
Isner joins Taylor Dent as wild card entries into the men's portion of the New Haven tournament. Richard Gasquet and Marcos Baghdatis are among the other players who have requested wild cards from the tournament.
The Pilot Pen starts on Aug. 21 with qualifying play. The champions will be crowned on Aug. 29.
