Yep I was watching.. not all obviously, mental.

**justashonglefan** · 06-24-2010, 05:27 AM

59 all, coming back tomorrow.

**xIuvyAuT** · 06-24-2010, 06:13 AM

I was watching it too, crazy stuff, I doubt either will be able to even walk tomorrow.

One guy's supposedly got a huge blister that they said will probably affect his game. Although to be honest if they went on for a day and a half already I wouldn't be surprised if no one lets up tomorrow too

. IT WILL NEVER END!

I guess the punters got their money's worth with that one.

**zttrftwsq** · 06-24-2010, 07:07 AM

57-58 what..? I thought after 6 sets its sudden death or sth?

**replrobin** · 06-24-2010, 07:57 AM

The 5th set at Wimbledon is a "long set". Meaning that you have to win it by two clear games.

I'm a semi-proper tennis player myself but I'm absolutely dead after 4 sets of singles over the course of an afternoon.
Words cannot describe how unbelievably fit those two guys (and most pro players in general) are to still be standing after 10 hours of it. Let alone they kept lashing down the 120mph Aces!

They should use a tiebreaker, going this long is pointless, not to mention stupid. Whoever wins and advnaces will be beaten his next match by a fresher guy, no doubt.

They could swap them with someone from the French National Football team, all of those men have fresh legs.

Point to will_perdikakis.

Ah yes... but they don't beat anyone.
