Just scrolling through my Twitter feed and saw the BBC Tweets about Murray's games - he finished his game today at a local time of 4am. And the arena was packed - amazing.
What is the latest anyone has watched a sporting event live as I can't remember watching anything past 11pm in my life?
A five set thriller at 4 in the morning - madness... |  |

He's 35, has a metal hip but still plays like a demon. I know plenty don't like him but you have to admit, he gives it everything. |  | | |

Just incredible, what an athletes.
And to think these pampered footballers don't like playing two games a week because they're tired 😡 |  |

The Rod laver tennis courts are very close to Melbourne city centre though.Only a 10-15 walk through the park.I wouldn’t like to walk from wimbledon at 4am. |  | | |

Incredible effort from Murray, the bloke is one hell of an athlete.
Aussies should be used to it though, didn't they all gather at 4AM to watch the world cup matches on big screens? They love it. |  |

To be honest it is a pretty stupid thing to start a tennis match at 10.20pm and then allowing it to carry on through. Murray won’t have a chance in the fourth round given that he has had to do the equivalent of a nightshift without much notice and then within 36 hours he has to battle again. |  |

We’re heading to Melbourne today for 3 days at tennis and up at 5am for flight - saw end of Murray match that kicked off night before - incredible.
I’ve done a 2am finish years ago with Djokovic v Warwenka that went something like 15-13 in 5th set. They’ve stopped that happening now with tie break in 5th set but to still see this length of match….
God knows how Murray recovers for next game on Sat |  | | |

Britain’s finest athlete. Never knows when he’s beaten and does a lot of good work for Charidee! | | | |

Not actually there, but I watched Bruno v Tyson down a local snooker club at about 3AM, remember walking home after and the roads were really busy. |  |

A very good performance from both players but certainly Murray. Shows what a great player he is.
Well done to the spectators too for staying up and especially the ball boys & girls.
What I would say is that it is not a good thing to have kept the game going past midnight let alone as late as 4am.
Wimbledon has class and the games stop to give everyone a well earned rest. The Australian Open lacks this in my view. They will eventually have to change as it just isn’t the right way to do things. | | | |

I think wimbledon stops because of the complaints from some very wealthy neighbours,and also the lack of transport back into central London. | | | |

Unbelievable how he won that game after already going five sets in the first round and having one good hip. He's an absolute warrior.
The late games here are ridiculous and have happened for many years. It's a huge disadvantage for the player that ends up winning in terms of the next round. | | | |
