You are arm wrestling and your opponent has the exact same strength you have. Neither of you can budge.
One weak second, and you would be done. One lapse of concentration, and it's over. Same is true for the other guy.
And the moment doesn't just last a few seconds. Or minutes. Or hours. It lasts three days. How do you do it? How do you keep it together?
That's how I saw tennis' biggest moment of 2010. The year in tennis belonged to Rafael Nadal, really, as he recovered from an injury that threatened his career, won three majors, reestablished himself as the world's best player and entered the argument about best player of all time.
But the most incredible moment is not in debate. It was John Isner beating Nicolas Mahut on a side court at Wimbledon on a Tuesday.
Also, on a Wednesday.
And a Thursday.
