No it really ended 59 all - playing again tomorrow, if they can drag themselves to the court.

The previous longest match was a mere 6hrs. Their last set has been longer than that. I think this qualifies as the tennis match from hell. :smile:

10hrs and counting and will resume in the morning.

Wowsers finally the match from hell is over after 11hrs and 5minutes. I wonder how long that will stay in the records books. :smile: Hopefully for a long long time.

A truly amazing thing. This is one time that the use of the word "epic" is not an exaggeration.

Two relative unknowns in a battle of endurance. And the winner still has to play another match today. Hopefully his pinky toes will be well-bandaged up since he said he has lost his skin on them.
