there were only 2 break points for Mahut and 5 match points for Isner in that entire set.

Well, there goes my 10-8 prediction and the under 25 games is certainly in jeopardy.

It's supposed to rain soon and the match might have to finish indoors, same with Rafa vs Djoker.....

They just started a mixed doubles semifinal on Court 1.

So that's no longer an option.

The worst part is that either Isner or Anderson are gonna get smoked Sunday anyway, but when they'll both be totally gassed? Ugly, ugly, ugly. I think the vast majority of people would be fine calling this the consolation final, and moving Novak-Rafa to Sunday afternoon.

That was pretty funny - Isner with a pretty nice get and winner and sits right down on his chair. We play on.

Crowd really should get involved, it's for the good of the sport that this ends ASAP.

This whole scenario is like going to a Foo Fighters concert only to have The Pussycat Dolls open for 5 hours! Just please end!

Which happens first, England wins the World Cup, or the end of this match?

It will be over 25 games lol

Edit: Patrick McEnroe - "When will it end?" as they go to commercial break.

And now the next over/under is today or tomorrow, when does Novak/Rafa start? I do think there has to be a cutoff, maybe if this disasterpiece isn't done by 8pm local, then no starting Novak/Rafa.

The real question is “Can this get past 138 games?”

Even the chair ump sounds like he wants this to end. Which he can of course, just go firm on the shot clock and start handing out time violations until someone defaults.

I mean, if Isner - Anderson are still playing at 7:30 local time, do they even start the Joker - Rafa match today?

That shot of Rod Laver in the crowd and the look on his face seemed to say "What the hell am I watching"?

The absolutely worst part is I can already see Anderson getting the break, but blowing it. The fans should litter the court with debris if that happens.

Lol Anderson gets a little opening on Isner's serve, Isner drops two straight aces, crowd groans noticeably.

Imagine having tickets to center court today expecting to see Nadal vs Djokovic only to have this match go all day and that match moved to tomorrow

Crowd erupts as Anderson wins the first point of an Isner service game.
