    I was hoping the match would end late today. It'll be a letdown if it ends early tomorrow.

    Incredible. The match lasted over 10 hrs AND STILL NO VICTOR.

    Even the scoreboard got stuck at 47-47 in the 5th set lol.

    I used to teach tennis and i will tell you, you have to be in great shape to last 4 hrs. These guys played 10 hrs image i cant imagine. amazing athletes.

    The first 4 sets were actually played on Tuesday. I think they played about 7 hours today. Still a long time, of course.

    That's how they roll in England. Sounds like a cricket match.
