That's a lot of games....

 

[The Wizard]

f***ing hell, this is going to go on for EVER.

 

[Djmiles]

Now 29-30 in the decider.

 

[Titanic]

Isner is leading 30-29 in the final set.

Mahut serving to stay in the match.

3 hours and 20 minutes in the final set so far.

 

[SeagullofKent]

Isner is 6ft 9"! And has hit over 60 aces!

 

[ben andrews' girlfriend]

Playing for 6 HOURS now.

 

[larus]

The number of games they've played in the fifth set would be a long match on its own.
65 games so far, so you could have 4 sets of 6-4, then the last one of 13-12 (still going of course.... )

 

[cjwoolven]

it's just INSANE now.

 

[The Wizard]

76 aces.

 

[Guy Fawkes]

Isner has now hit 76 aces - a record

The match is now officially the longest ever match - You will have to feel sorry for whoever loses

And now that i have just turn over to watch it, i expect it will be over in a couple of games

 

[Gully]

35-34...now the longest match in history.

...this match could go on until one of them dies from old age!

 

[S'hampton Seagull]

Looks like it will go over 7 hours now!

 

[larus]

245 minutes for the 5th set. Yikes....

 

[larus]

Isner looking really tired now; much more that Mahut.

 

[Guy Fawkes]

Isner looking really tired now; much more that Mahut.

I was thinking the same thing, not surprising really as they start game 117 !!

 

[Spider]

Isner looking really tired now; much more that Mahut.

Problem is he can still serve. Seems to be stuck in a stalemate between one big server whose kept his composure and one who has a bit more fitness but not enough to break the quality serve.

 

[The Wizard]

38-38 *Utter Disbelief*

 

[Barrel of Fun]

This must break all sorts of records.

Longest match.
Number of games in the final set.
Litres of Robinsons drunk in the space of 6 hours.

 

[cjwoolven]

80 aces for isner.

 

[Barrel of Fun]

Mahut 2 40
vs
Isner 2 40*

Is that a royal deuce?
