I know next to nothing about tennis, but The Guardian's liveblogger is my new favorite person.
Genius! Steal the rackets from the zombie tennis players. It's their only hope.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I love how the IBM Slam Tracker now says:
Please add 50 to the Isner/Mahut game score in Slam Tracker. Awesome!
