Today's Wimbledon match between John Isner and Nicolas Mahunt was halted in the 5th set with a 59-59 tie. The match will conclude tomorrow morning in what will go down as the longest match in tennis history.

Those guys are going to be dead tomorrow!!

They looked dead yesterday. After every set, they'd both slump over a little bit... That has to be physically and emotionally draining.

finally!!

When John Isner finally won the longest match in tennis history, he collapsed on the Wimbledon grass and then summoned one last burst of energy, springing to his feet to applaud along with the crowd.

The American hit a backhand winner to win the last of the match's 980 points, and he took the fifth set Thursday against Nicolas Mahut, 70-68.
