Isner's got fuck all energy left but just keeps pumping those first serves in.

I reckon they'll stop for bad light soon and continue tomorow, that would take it to a third day if it happens!

They've now played more games in this set than the previous longest ever match.

The winner of this is scheduled to play tomorrow. Wonder if they would still have to if bad light stops play? I'd put the mortgage on their opponent winning in straight sets.

Isner looks like he might die. Which would be exciting.

Ive just turned over, this is incredible. Its good to see sportsmen showing how much a match means to them, neither wants to give up. I know of a certain bunch of football players representing France who could learn a thing or two from these guys.

It's boring as fuck though. Neither player wants to lose so are taking no chances even when it's at deuce.

Its got to get to a point where they have to both agree on a tie-break? I switched on two hours ago at 30-30 or something and have even stopped watching the football because of it.
The endurance of both players is unbelievable, don't think ive done 9 hrs of exercise this year, let alone in the past two days!
It isvery boring, but i've invested too much time to miss the winner now!!

It's not great tennis, which is understandable, but I wouldn't say it was boring. Every extra game is a bit exciting just for the pure mentalness of it.
It's a bit like the tennis equivilent of 100 rocky 4's in a row.
