I think the record for longest game was broken just the other day, it was somewhere in the 40's(for total amount of games in the third set)

There should be a tiebreak for the last sets as well, it may be after 8:8 or 9: 9 or even 10:10 but its ridiculous to leave them playing forever and being more tired for their next game, especially on the 5th sets in grand slams. In that sense I like America Open the best

2 Games advantage in that last set. In most tournaments male players play a BO5 in which it is the same for the 5th set. If it happens before the last set they play first-to-seven or if it is 7:6 first to have 2 points advantage.

God, it's after 3am now. I know this is conduct unbecoming a Federer fan, but unless something happens in the next couple games i'm really going to have to head to bed and find out what happened tomorrow.
When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive - to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love.

Pretty sure they are going to pass that for time though, even if not games.

Tsonga vs Raonic was carried a lot more by the serve.

Kobe Bryant (who's attending the match live) is probably thinking "Good that I'm not playing this shit, we have it easy"

Yeah, no kidding. Unless Murray and Djokovic go that far too, would be pretty awesome

The finals is a Bo5 so it's pretty intense. ><

I feel Del potro have gotten the momentum back on his serve now, and Federer is far from breaking him.
