Wimbledon Tennis Championship 2010
>> Monday, June 28, 2010
Wimbledon is the the most pretigious tennis championship in the world. The Wimbledon Tennis Championship 2010 seemed no different from the previous editions. Wowowwimbledon!
The Score:
Last year, it was an epic final between eventual champ Roger Federer and this year's sentimental favorite, Andy Roddick. The year before that, the titanic clash between eventual champ Rafael Nadal and dethroned Roger Federer that changed the balance of tennis supremacy.
This year, we were given an epic clash right at the very first round of the Wimbledon 2010. The longest tennis match ever has been given a lot of names including THE MATCH THAT WOULD NEVER END. I would like jump in the bandwagon and call it wimblethon.
The protagonists: John Isner of the United States and Nicolas Mahut of France.
Savor this score, for you will probably never see its kind again: 6-4, 3-6, 6-7 (7), 7-6 (3), 70-68. Source
When The Match That Would Not End finally did, at 70-68 in the fifth set, after a record 11 hours, 5 minutes spread over three days, the customary handshake between opponents simply would not suffice. Source
With no player showing consistent dominant form, the 2010 wimbledon championships promises to have a very exciting conclusion.
