SI tennis writer Bryan A. Graham brought to our attention this new condom ad from Durex, featuring highlights from the longest tennis match at history, played at Wimbledon this year between John Isner and Nicolas Mahut. Not sure that you can last for 11 hours and 5 minutes? Go ahead and give it a try, Durex has you covered. (Literally.) Click the image to watch the ad.
More Isner: John is still alive at the Atlanta Tennis Championships as quarterfinals take place today. As is a Britney-inspired Andy Roddick.
More longevity: In Germany, Frantisek Cermak and Michal Mertinek took down Pablo Cuevas and Eduardo Shwank in the first round of doubles with a 6-3, 3-6, 22-20 (match tie-breaker) effort. 42 points is no 138 games, but you gotta give the guys props for going the distance.
