59 - 59 when bad light stopped play, over 10 hours!Record books are being rewritten, the word "epic" is often an exaggeration - not in this case! Wonder if we'll get a winner tomorrow...

It only took them another 20 games to finalise - both managing 100 aces!
John Isner got it in the end, but the real winner seems to be tennis.
