Kuerten served 47 aces in 5 sets against Daniel Nestor in a Davis Cup match in 2003 (and somehow he managed to lose!)

Flipper hit 44 aces in a 3 set match (which was a record at the time) IF I recall correctly. so set(s) from that match must be on the list. I also think he served 20 aces against Schalken at Wimbledon in one set.

Each set is like a car gradually accelerating to full speed. 11 aces, 12 aces, 13 aces, 15 aces, and finally 27 aces.

At Wimbledon 2010, wouldn't Isner or Mahut have to have a LOT of aces in set 5. Yeah, I know, it's not a normal set by any means and the ace rate (aces per game) is probably not any higher than other examples given here, but the total number of aces must have been pretty high.

What about Curren's quarter- or semi-final matches against Connors and McEnroe at the 1985 Wimbledon? He must have served a high number of aces in those matches.
