A great match, one which Wimbledon tried it's best to ruin with their stupid 11pm rule. You have matches that go on until well after 12am at the US Open and to think if they'd gone off at 11pm with a result reachable in the next few minutes would've been stupid to make them come back in 40 hours for just a handful of games potentially. Which takes me to my next point about Wimbledon, why not play on the 1st Sunday like every other major tournament to ease the pressure on the timetable? I don't care that it may be because of tradition, the tournament needs to get with the times.
