In 1980, Borg won the longest-ever Wimbledon singles final to that time, 3 hours and 53 minutes (the record stood until 1982). That year, he also lost the longest-ever U.S. Open final to that time, 4 hours and 13 minutes (the record stood until 1988)." from http://www.all-about-tennis.com/bjorn-borg.html. Federer and Nadal's match in the Australian Open 2009 Finals was 4 hours and 23 minutes. On July 5, 2009, the Federer vs. Roddick final was the highest Singles Men's Final Score: 5-7, 7-6 (6), 7-6 (5), 3-6, 16-14 The match lasted 4 hours 18 minutes.

The Isner–Mahut match at the 2010 Wimbledon Championships is the longest tennis match in history.

John Isner (23) vs. France Nicolas Mahut (Q)

In total, the match took 11 hours, 5 minutes of play over three days, with a final score of 6–4, 3–6, 6–7(7–9), 7–6(7–3), 70–68 for a total of 183 games. It remains by far the longest match in tennis history, measured both by time and number of games. The final set alone was longer than the previous longest match.

The previous official record for duration was set at the 2004 French Open when Fabrice Santoro defeated Arnaud Clément 6–4, 6–3, 6–7(5), 3–6, 16–14, in 6 hours, 33 minutes.
