no one is watching the tournament?

the match will continue tomorrow, it's 59x59.

It's now suspended at 59-59, after 10 hours of play. The old record was (IIRC) at 6 hours and 33 minutes, from the french open.

It's now 50% longer than any other recorded professional tennis match.



One hell of a match so far.  

Cannot believe Mahut was DIVING after balls during the end there.  Didnt they say that just the last set > any other match in Open Era history now?



Holy crap. Those guys' arms must feel like they're about to fall out of their sockets.
