Question

Where was the record for the longest professional tennis match broken in 2010 when John Isner & Nicolas Mahut took 11 hours and 5 minutes over a three day period?

Answer 1

Wimbledon
The score (Isner v Mahut) was 6-4, 3-6, 6-7(7), 7-6(3), 70-68. The fifth set was the longest in history determined by duration (8 hours 11 minutes) or number of games (138); the set itself would have broken the previous records for whole matches for duration (6 hours 33 minutes) and number of games (112 (singles), 122 (doubles)). In 2012 Novak Djokovic won the Australian Open, with, the longest ever final in Grand Slam history, clocked at 5 hours and 53 minutes.
