The knackered pair prepare to leave the court

"Amazingly, when they step on court again it will be the third day of their first-round battle which began on Tuesday, was suspended at the end of the fourth set and resumed today. "

The longest game in grand slam history is locked at 59-59 in the fifth set - and punters don't know who's going to win - either man can be backed at [2.0] to make it to the second round

They've played for more than 10 hours and served nearly 100 aces each - but punters still cannot split John Isner and Nicolas Mahut who are currently locked in the longest game in the history of grand slam tennis. Unbelievably, it's 59-59 in the fifth set!

And the odds make it evens the pair when the action resumes tomorrow.

Amazingly, when they step on court again it will be the third day of their first-round battle which began on Tuesday, was suspended at the end of the fourth set and resumed today. Neither man has been able to take his chances and the game is locked at the mind-boggling score of 59-all in the decider.

The odds don't offer huge motivation for whoever makes it through - the pair are huge outsiders to win the tournament with Isner available to back at [270.0] and Mahut at [670.0].
