Came accross this while googling something else, and thought it made an interesting read. On match point as well...

Wow, 29 minutes, 643 shots !   disbelief

Actually as I read it, it was at set point to the loser ( of that point and the match ) in the second set tiebreaker when she was 11 - 10. up.

Vicki Nelson took that point though and the subsequent two points ( well, after she'd recovered from collapsing with cramp and getting a time-violation warning ) to beat Jean Hepner :   6 - 4   7 - 6 (11)
