John Isner and Nicolas Mahut tore up the record books as their epic first-round contest at Wimbledon became the longest in tennis history. The match was locked at 59-59 in the final set after 10 hours of play when it was suspended because of bad light.

Whoever did the draw for this year was having a laugh - Isner and Mahut drawn together again!
I'd say it's unlikely they'll beat their record. One of my favourite bits of trivia is that they played more games in that single match than Serena Williams did in Wimbledon, the US Open, the Australian Open and the French Open combined in the year she did the Grand Slam.
