Wimbledon

[Element 117]

ten and a half hours.

I wonder who the winner plays against!?

 

[Dave]

Nobody. He gets a golden fiddle from the devil and he gets to go home.

 

[Element 117]

65 games all.

 

[Dave]

The freaking LINE JUDGE just grabbed a couple energy drinks!

 

[Element 117]

I feel bad for the match judge. Those chairs look uncomfortable.

mahut looks seriously pissed that he cant put this guy away despite his superior prowess.

 

[Dave]

Mahut is serving only 110 mph. His volleys are keeping him in while Isner's serve is keeping him in.

 

[Element 117]

ISNER!

 

[Dave]

Holy fuck what a match!

Isner wins 70-68

 

[drifter]

Way to go Isner!

 

[Element 117]

oh shit, they all get a "holy fuck you played too long" medal

 

[Dave]

It's very cool they are recognizing these two.

 

[Element 117]

they dont want a freaking medal. all three just want to go home after 11 hours and 5 minutes and take a bath.

Mahut looks like his life is ruined.

 

[Dave]

Is it just me or does Mahut look like a sore loser?

 

[Element 117]

to be fair, he is emotionally crushed. its hard to put on a smiley face like it was nothing after 11 hours.

get this asshole commentator off the field.

 

[Dave]

They put Isner through to the THIRD ROUND!

 

[Element 117]

 

[Dave]

And he stopped to sign autographs!!

 

[Element 117]

I think both these men have sponsorship careers ahead

 

[drifter]

Isner is scheduled for a doubles match in half an hour? Good thing you don't do a lot of running in doubles.

 

[bhamv3]

I'll be impressed if he can lift his arms, much less play doubles.

 

[Element 117]

Pretty sure he'll forfeit or the game will be held/cancelled.

 

[drawn_inward]

I can play tennis for about 20 minutes. After that, I flop around like an asthmatic with congestive heart failure. That match was nuts.

 

[Piotyr]

Isner already had to play his second round match. He lost 6-0, 6-3, 6-2 and got zero aces.

 

[Dave]

I thought yesterday they said that he got passed through to the third round. I *know* I heard that!

 

[Piotyr]

They couldn't just do that, as it would be really unfair to his second round opponent.

 

[Element 117]

damn. That's a bit cruel, given that his opponent didn't have to play 11 hours in successive games. But hell, it's sports. At least Mahut might feel mollified
