This article detailslongest tennis match records by duration or number of games.The 1970–1973 introduction of thetiebreak reduced the opportunity for such records to be broken. However, among thefour majors, theUS Open,Australian Open andWimbledon (since 2019) use the tiebreak in the final set, while theFrench Open, through 2021, was the only major to use theadvantage set rules in the final set, which allows for an indefinite number of games until one player is ahead by two. A 2022 rule change now requires every Grand Slam tournament to use the tiebreak in the final set. TheOlympic Games have also used a final set tiebreak since 2016.

Thelongest women's match (by time) took place ata tournament in Richmond, Virginia, in 1984, whenVicki Nelson took 6 hours, 31 minutes to defeatJean Hepner 6–4, 7–6^(13–11). The match featured a 29-minute, 643-shot rally, the longest in professional tennis history, though no video exists of this point.^[18][19]

Unlike men's singles matches, where Grand Slam events are played over the best of five sets, all women's matches are played as the best of three sets. All matches since January 1, 2019 have been checked, but there are likely to be many more from earlier years which have not yet been recognised, especially as qualifying matches in ITF tournaments before that date would normally have been played over the best of three tie-break sets.
