Summary:
Something extreme happened yesterday. In the Wimbledon court a 10 hour long tennis match took place. The two players, John Isner and Nicolas Mahut, were completely worn out after the 10 hours of play. It was decided to continue the match today after they played a shocking 59 -59 deadlock. Keeping their health in mind, in today’s match they will take it a bit more easy because they aren’t a 100% recovered from yesterdays match. It is important they take their time between points and to make sure that their breathing is right to avoid long term injuries.
Opinion:
I was really excited when I read this article. How cool is it to play for so extremely long in a row and neither one of the players is able to win. I am so going to watch this match on the television today. I do think the players should give some attention to their health because it is unnatural to play tennis for 10 hours straight. In some ways I think it could be dangerous. The information given besides the match information is rather interesting as well because suddenly a whole new area of interests opens up with a match like this one.
