Actually, they´d (John Isner and Nicolas Mahut) started playing yesterday (the game was stopped at the end of the 4th set - 2 sets each, with the lengh of 4 hour) and resumed today for the 5th set (in Wimbledon there isn´t tiebreak, so the player that get 2 games ahead after 6 is the winner - last I´ve heard it was 59 games to each) and they´ve played for 6 hours, when the game had to be stopped again, due to absence of natural light, and will be resumed again tomorrow. There are two records in this match: 1) the duration and 2) Isner broke the record of aces (he´s scored more than 79) in a single match, and has, for now, 94 aces.
