Fan-bloody-tastic!! Well done John Isner! can't believe how long it went on for!! he beat Nicolas Mahut 6-4, 3-6, 6-7, 7-6, 70-68 (or 69?) I read that they played for 11 hours!!!

I think they both deserve a medal!!

Absolutely amazing game! The longest match in history I believe and it still isn't won!!

McEnroe mentioned that after such a long game, he fears that at least one player won't be fit to play, I hope this isn't the case as it would be good to see it finish!

Wimbledon John Isner v Nicolas Mahut suspended at 59-59 in the fifth set. Who's going to come back and win this epic on Thursday?

Wow! Wow! Wow!

Maybe next year! How do you go about getting tickets? Are they expensive?

They are not expensive shelly, certainly not for the ground ones, max 20 quid, and once you are in, you can get a centre court one for a fiver!

I'm definatly going to try and go next year now! I was talking to someone the other day and she told me that Tickets were £100! But i wouldn't mind just being in the outside courts and being that i'm not far from London i think i definatly need to go!

I fly down, and get a ground ticket... that lets you see all the games on the outside courts, and as it is middle weekend you can get centre court tickets/number 1 court tickets , once you are in the grounds, you have to queue, usually, but I got centre court ones a couple of yrs ago.Last yr I went for finals weekend so all you are likely to get is the ground ticket. Totally love it though the atmosphere is amazing even on the outside courts and within the grounds.
