  1. 1967 - WRONG players were still standing betwen points in 1969 (sorry still searching).

    ahhhhhhhhhhhh here it is (extract from Sky sports amazingly)

    The following year saw Rod Laver win the singles for the fourth time and one of the greatest games of all time - Pancho Gonzales and Charlie Pasarell contesting a first-round match containing 112 games.

    The match was all the more remarkable given that it was not until 1975 that chairs were provided for the first time for players to rest when changing ends.

    1975   1975   1975    1975  that was hard work!
