I think they had shortened it to 9 and 7, from 13 on the prior rounds, in the 90's/2000's, to fit on ESPN. The 7 might have been the women, I don't remember for sure.Race to 11 is too short for a major final IMO.
Race to 13 is perfect.
Race to 11 is too short for a major final IMO.Cut down on the fluff and race to 11 probably gets us home in three hours and some change rather than pushing four.
Regardless, if people can’t see the positives in today (and I’m not saying that you can’t) I can’t help you.
Race to Eleven is fine.Great match! I don't have cable but do have WNTTV.
I'm actually surprised MR/ESPN allotted 3 hrs. The whole telecast is still going on and its at 3:56 now. There is no way a race to 13, plus the intro, plus the commercial breaks, was going to be done in 3 hrs. MR now has about 5 years of this data, they should have known better.
I expect if its on ESPN again, whichever stage of matches are broadcast will be shortened significantly, like they did with both the men and the women in the 90's and 2000's.

I am impressed ESPN moved it to another channel rather than taking it down completely.Great match! I don't have cable but do have WNTTV.
