Federer pulled a set back but a break down in the 4th.

He was interviewed this morning saying he wanted to be finished in time to watch the Chile-Switzerland match

Mahut v Isner is 28 games all in the final set. They've been playing over six hours so far. Neither look like losing their serve, they could still be playing tomorrow...

 

[Motown Fox]

Isner has just won the 79th game of the final set to make it 40 games to 39
So Mahut now serving to stay in the match!!
But he has already done that a few times already

[Motown Fox]

More of a basketball score than a tennis match.

It was great to watch the other night though. Every time there looked like there might be a breakthrough one or the other of them would suddenly pull out a fantastic shot or a great serve.
Poor old Mahut then had to play a doubles game later on yesterday after the marathon game had finished.
