Wimbledon 2010 ~ J.Isner VS N.Mahut : EPIC !§
Helloooooow !! Today, I won't write here about AAA, on nissychiaki either.
As it will stay in history, I just thought : I have to write something about this ! :D
It wasn't the most interesting match, but it was exciting :D
I think you heard (at least) about that, maybe you would even have watched that match.
Yeah, I'm talking about Nicolas Mahut and John Isner match @Wimbledon.
