Record-setting Wimbledon match

The sad thing is that there is NO way whomever wins actually makes it past their next match...

 

I'd bet that both of these could take on their next opponent 2 versus 1 and still lose from the fatigue they must be facing. I can only imagine the leg cramps at night. Unreal.

It really dramatizes how much the serve has completely taken over tennis. It is soooo tough to break someone in today's tennis world.

 

+1

 

And in this match, very few games are even close...only 1 or two games in the last 40-50 since I have been watching have even gone to duece. Amazing.

 

68-68., and as I type this, Isner down 0-30 serving.

well, it is toughest on grass. but that's kinda how it's been for a long time. I mean, how often did boris becker or stefan edberg lose their serve at wimbledon?

this'll be a great story for mahut to tell his kids someday.

 

mahut: i played the longest match in tennis history, 11 hours and five minutes.

his kid: really, daddy? how'd you do?

mahut: yup, the longest match ever ...

his kid: why are you crying, daddy?
