35 all. 7 hours of playing tennis.
Losing that match would really, really suck.
Watching that match would suck! You'd need a lunch break in there.Originally Posted by Boston Red

142 combined aces. Third and fourth sets went to tiebreakers as well. 36-35 Isner still on serve.
They are in England. They should stop for tea.
And crumpetts..... It's now 39-38 Isner.

Now 40-39 Isner.
Sounds like a halftime score in college basketball.
Up to 41-41 now. That's insane.
Incredible. I imagine the players waiting to use that court next are wishing they would hurry up and end this.
I have seen entire college basketball games with scores less than that. 42-41 Isner.

They should just move that match to another court. Of course they only have a couple more hours of daylight left.
Apparently these players don't get their serve broken much. The 3rd and 4th sets both went to tiebreakers and now a 42-41 5th set.
Now 43-42 Isner
