Longest tennis match in history.
June 24, 2010 2:02 AM
We interrupt this regular DEMOCRACY blog to bring you history from Wimbledon:
Wimbledon's modern-day gladiators John Isner and Nicolas Mahut will return to battle it out for a third day on Court 18 to finish one of the most incredible tennis matches ever played, the longest on record by a country mile with the clock at exactly 10 hours when play was suspended due to poor light at just after 9pm, with the score standing at an incredible 4-6, 6-3, 7-6(9-7) 6-7(3-7), 59-59.
Yes, you read that score in the last set correctly: 59-59. And it's still not over!!
OK, you can get back to world events now...
