I think it encourages them to play better

and some of the rallies in this match are awesome, both men getting lucky!

 

[Bulldog Force]

Nadal strikes the first blow and breaks first. Won't mean nothing though unless he can hold. Nadal leads 3-2, serving now!

Fun fact: the longest Tennis match in History was a round 1 Wimbeldon match in 2010. The match was played by Nicolas Mahunt and John Isner lasting 11 hours and 5 minutes, taking 183 games.

Nadal goes up 4-2 over the world number one

I can see Nadal winning in 3 sets tbh

Novaks physical and mental epic with Murray is showing up already in this first set

Djokovich goes up 5-4

Nadal chance to take this without a tie-breaker.

I remember that. Only because Isner is one of my favorites (he is a Bulldog supporter after all) - http://forums.leagueunlimited.com/showthread.php?t=395953

Joshie what was the 5th set score again? Something like 70-68??

 

[joshie]

Djokovich applying so much pressure here to Nadal, and Nadal cracks as we go to a deuce.
