Mahut looks soooo refreshed and light on his feet. He should be able to take it if John’s serve ever degrades in the slightest. ---

Vegas now has the odds of the earth being consumed by the sun before this match ends at 2 to 1. ---

Mahut is playing tennis, Isner is just serving. ---

It’s over! 70-68 to Isner. I thought it might have to be integrated into the 2012 Olympics. ---

They are giving awards to the umpire and players. Very nice touch. ---

Aww, they’re making them stand up to collect their special mementoes and talk to the cameras. I hope they don’t collapse. ‘Got a little bit tired,’ says Isner. Heh. I liked the special cheer for the umpire’s bladder control. ---

> [@scifisam2009](#): > > Isner has a doubles game in an hour’s time and the next round of singles tomorrow. Weird. He has to get going. I mean, most guys have played the second round already. He’ll nearly have two singles match in a day(if he wins). ---

Nothing compared to what he’s played so far, I guess. Does anyone else think Isner looks like Jake Gyllenhall?
