I can't wait to see highlights tonight. Hated to miss the actual match. Longest match I've seen was an amazing semi-final men's doubles match @ the 96 Atlanta games. The "Woodies" against a Dutch pair and it was an amazing match, I think the tie breaker ended in the 30's. Hate to see anyone "lose" a match like this. |

I watched this and it was apparent these guys were dead on their feet. They have played over 100 games in the fifth set and not a SINGLE broken serve. I think this shows that there should be some tiebreakers implemented. It will throw the game schedules off in the brackets these guys are in. --------------------------- Todd Parker STP Images Museum District Studio and Gallery STP Images Seniorology STP Images Commercial Photography |

Borg-McEnroe. Wimbledon. 1980. Doesn't get any better. Not the longest maybe. Easily the most intense.
