I only saw a bit of the first two sets, but this appears to have been a truly historic match. It’s a shame that it happened during the middle of the night here in America.
To be fair, it went until the middle of the night here in Australia as well - 5hours.
- Bubba.
Badass! I sincerely hope for reruns at some point. Mmmm, tennis.
That match was the best match I have ever seen in my life. I must have a copy.
I saw it in the middle of the afternoon on Wednesday. What a slugfest. Reminded me a bit of the old Borg/McEnroe matches where you’d be glued to the set for hours.
Kinda depressed that the Moroccan lost. He’s getting up in age and the commentators kept saying it was probably his last shot at a title.
