    One day after winning the longest tennis match in history, John Isner lost the shortest men's match at Wimbledon so far this year.

    It was back to normal, meanwhile, for defending champion Roger Federer, who showed he was back at the top of his game by sweeping Arnaud Clement in straight sets to reach the fourth round in his bid for a seventh Wimbledon crown.

    Marathon man Isner looked weary from the outset Friday, required treatment for a neck injury and was beaten by unseeded Thiemo de Bakker of the Netherlands, 6-0, 6-3, 6-2.
