Diego Schwartzman hit one of the shots of the year against John Isner at the Paris Masters

Diego Schwartzman conjured up a moment that will take your breath away during his match against John Isner at the Paris Masters.

Ninth-seeded American Isner came through in three sets against the durable Argentine Schwartzman 7-6 (7-2) 6-7 (13-11) 6-3 in the French capital.

But the Bercy crowd will forever remember the flexibility and incredible audacity of Schwartzman to produce arguably the shot of the year in the 12th game of the second set.
