A MOMENT-IN-TIME POEM
1) The longest match in tennis history between John Isner and Nicolas Mahut finally ended at Wimbledon yesterday…..after playing for 11 hours and 5 mins, stretching over 3 days. (John Isner won 6-4, 3-6, 6-7 (7-9), 7-6 (7-3), 70-68 (!!!))
A glance at the scoreboard can’t even begin to tell the whole story
When the match finally ended, the two players had already made tennis history
Eleven hours on court, two tennis players battled and fought like true gladiators
