Tennis Longest Match Evvvveeerrrr


The Longest match ever played in all tournament! 5 set match, 11 hour 5 minutes for the last set ( I think). Jon Isner of the USA and Nicolas Mahut of France with 70-68 respectively in the 5th set. take note this is just a 1st round match for them.


I can’t imagined how stressful this match was for them, emotional and physically. And everybody was talking about it. This match is definitely surreal and fantastic, no one can ever do this again, or maybe in 10 years or so.
For a consolation for both players, Wimbledon has given them a token for their historic match. Jon Isner was given a Virgin Trophy. I just don’t know what was given to Nicholas Mahut. However a big applause for them.
