The American notched the biggest win of his career, and lost a shoe in the process.

You have your footwork, you have your fast footwork and you have your BLAZING FAST footwork. For American Noah Rubin it was most certainly the latter on Day 4 of the Citi Open—check out this outrageous play by the 22-year-old World No. 152. Rubin comes at a full sprint from way behind the Washington, D.C. sign to track down this dropper from John Isner and when he's made the shot he pirouettes athletically, just barely missing the net.

Outrageous!

Rubin went on to claim the 6-4, 7-6(6) victory over second-seeded Isner, it was the biggest of his career by ranking.

Unfortunately the American did suffer one loss during the match. He ran so fast on that point that his shoe did not make it through the game. See the video below to see the damage he did to his trainer. Rubin would later toss the shoe into the crowd, not the best souvenir but a souvenir nonetheless.
