Finally, the fifth set lasted 09 h 11 min. After the match, Isner and the fifth for the first day, the two men fell into the arms at the net. The part between Isner Mahut and brought down all longevity records of tennis: the longest match, set the longest, largest number of games ... and others, as the greatest number of aces in a match, Isner used in 112, against 103 to Mahut, record Ivo Karlovic (78) sprayed.

I remember watching the tennis, then watching a world cup match, I turned back at the end to see the game was still on, watched another world cup match, turned back to see it was still on. I couldn't believe it. :eek:
 
I hadn't heard anything about it yesterday. This afternoon, at work, someone asked how "that tennis match was going?"

I replied, "Which one? Andy Murray?" and they said, "No. The one that was at 59 each last night." I was, " :eek: What?!?! Did you just say 59?"
 
What I found amusing, is that the score got so high, that score board reached its limit and had to be re-programmed for the match. :lol:
 
What a game that was!! I couldnt believe it, every time I checked it was still going. Absolutely insane!
 
I heard about this, it's really impressive. I used to play tennis when I was a kid, and my mom got to play at a very decent level at one point when she was younger. Beautiful sport.
