Who holds the record for the most aces in a single match?

John Isner holds the record for the most aces by one player in a single professional tennis match, serving 113 against Nicolas Mahut at Wimbledon in 2010. The extraordinary first-round match lasted 11 hours and 5 minutes across three days.

Isner and Mahut played for 183 games, with the final set alone finishing 70–68 to Isner. Isner struck 113 aces, while Mahut hit 103, producing 216 aces between them. The match became famous not only for the serving record but also as the longest match in tennis history under the traditional scoring format.

The contest began on June 22, 2010, was suspended twice because of darkness, and ended on June 24. Isner won 6–4, 3–6, 6–7, 7–6, 70–68. Wimbledon introduced final-set tie-break procedures years later, so a match of that length is no longer possible under the current event rules.

The question refers to an individual player’s total. The combined match ace total was 216, but the individual record belongs to Isner.
