Mahut vs Isner.

2 blokes playing the longest match ever out there.

The final set has lasted over 5 1/2 hours

Over 137 games. Amazing.

Isner looks done. Absolutely physically f'ucked. What a crazy score-line.

Its that fascinating sport where two people stand opposite end of a lane of grass with a net in the middle.

They then use a bat with strings in it to volley a ball over the net in the middle in a hope to get the ball past the other player.

The opposing player then has to try to stop the ball going past him and try to hit the ball on return to achieve the same aim.

All in all it can turn into one boring, depressing, brain numbing contest that can, as has been seen, become the capital T in tedious.

I like Mahut, even if he is French.

I haven't watched much tennis as the World Cup is on, but how is Maria "daddy long legs" Sharapova getting on? I might watch it, if I'm feeling horny. Also, how is Wozniacki getting along?
