  45-45 in the Isner-Mahut match
• ts1227

  

  If anyone is watching this and would rather see the end of the match than the beginning of the World Cup group D game, it's going to ESPNU
• Laley23

  

  This is insane....but its a World Cup year. Screw early round Wimbledon!
• krambman

  

  I'm at work watching this on ESPN3 right now. This match is beyond epic. Over 8 hours long!
• Hulk Smash

  48 all
  
  Winner is third scheduled match tomorrow......................................................unless they are still playing this one.

  50-50
• krambman

  

  They just played their 100th game of the 5th set. 100 games in one set! That's almost twice as many games as the average 5 set match has. They have basically played two 5-set matches in this set alone! I think at 50 all they should just play an emergency tie breaker, although I'm not sure that would get things over any quicker.

  Mahut to serve at 51-52
• ts1227

  

  53-53
  
  Match has surpassed the 9:00 mark
• dave

  haha this is just ridiculous. not 1 break since the second set.
• gorocks99

  

  This is insane. These guys have to be totally and utterly gassed. 54-53 now.
• krambman

  

  It's amazing that both have had this many consecutive successful service games. It's amazing that either one of these guys can even hold a racket at this point.
• dave

  You would think they would be double faulting all the time.
• trackandccrunner

  Man I can't wait to see this on ESPN Classic. I know it will be. Fucking sounds like a great match .

  They will make it an all day marathon for one match
• karen lotz

  

  I wonder how much the winner will have left in the tank. Isner can barely move from the service line but is hitting bomb forehands everywhere.
• dave

  Isner is about to pass out. I don't think he can ever break.
• ts1227

  

  59-59, suspended for darkness
• krambman

  

  Match postponed tied 59-all due to darkness (it's 9:15pm in England).
  
  Both players have broken the previous record for aces in a match by one player, and this is already officially the longest match in tennis history.
• gorocks99

  

  Wow. Just, wow. Watch, it'll end in two games tomorrow.
• ts1227

  

  Didn't realize it at the time, as I was flipping between this and Ghana/Germany, but the reason it was stopped just gives us another reason to hate the French.
  
  Mahut bitched that it was too dark and he couldn't see the bright yellow fucking ball, but Isner wanted to keep playing. The officials at Wimbledon agreed to stop it (because rich Englishmen are as big of, if not bigger pussies than the French).

• Sonofanump

  They actually stopped it 3 minutes later than last night. But beside that, I still don't care for the French much.
• ts1227

  

  It looked like there was sufficient light. It was darker, but by no means dark... the sun was still out.
  
  They called it too early both nights, could have got another 15 minutes out of it and it would have still been fair to the participants.
• like_that

  

  Why have they not installed lights at Wimbledon yet?
• Ironman92

  

  ...it was on court #18
  
  I can't believe there isn't more on this on here. I turned over accidently and it was 29-28....couldn't let it go without watching...it wasn't great tennis....but it was the best of competition and all guts were used
  
  IF Isner get get loose and recovery at all.....I think this benefits him.....he wasn't going to win tonight.
  
  Best stat......Wimbledon record for aces was 55.....in the 5th set alone Isner has 70 and Mahut has 69....THUS FAR
