The longest match at Wimbledon was also the longest match in professional tennis history. It was a first-round match between John Isner (US) and Nicholas Mahut (France) and it lasted 11 hours and 5 minutes, played over 3 days. Isner won after 183 games, also the most ever. The players played for 2 hours the first day, 8 hours the second day, and just over an hour on the third day.
There is a three-way tie for shortest female tennis players. The three players are Jill Craybas, Camille Pin, and Anna Smashnova, who are all 5'3". Anna Smashnova, besides having an awesome last name, has reached world #15, which was her highest ranking in her career. She retired from the WTA tour after Wimbledon in 2007. Camille's highest achievement was probably when she came within two points of defeating top seeded Maria Sharapova in the first round of the 2007 Australian Open. Jill Craybas is best known for her victory at Wimbledon in 2005 over Serena Williams in the 3rd round.
If there is not enough players in turnament, bye is awarded to seeded players. It is a free passage to second round of a tournament.
