Saturday Sports Update
Top left: In 2010, John Isner (right) played the longest match in Wimbledon history. On Friday, the big American was involved in another grueling encounter at the All England Club, but unlike his match against Nicolas Mahut eight years ago, Isner wound up on the wrong end of the score. After 6 hours and 36 minutes, Kevin Anderson (left) knocked off Isner 7-6, 6-7, 6-7, 6-4, 26-24 in a classic semifinal. Photo by USA Today

The Serbian's semifinal match against Rafael Nadal was completed today after a local curfew caused it to be suspended Friday. Djokovic needed 5 hours and 21 minutes to beat Nadal 6-4, 3-6, 7-6, 3-6, 10-8. Photo by USA Today
