Marin Cilic: 'I'm happy John Isner match is over'

After beating John Isner in five sets over two days, Maric Cilic reveals his delight at making the fourth round at Wimbledon.

Croatia's Marin Cilic has revealed his delight at finishing off his five-set Wimbledon encounter with America's John Isner in just two games after its resumption today.

With the two level at 10-10 in the fifth set, play was halted last night due to bad light. However, Cilic returned to court today and quickly secured a 7-6(4) 6-7(6) 6-4 6-7(4) 12-10 win.

"I was pleased to finish the match off, throughout I thought I was the one putting more pressure on returns," Cilic told BBC Sport.

"But you never know when it is a new day and new conditions. I was really pleased to break him at the first attempt."

Cilic will face another American, Denis Kudla, in the fourth round.
