Tennis has never looked so good…

Tennis is one of the most enjoyable spectator sports in the World and today’s men’s singles final between Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic at Roland Garros promises to be another classic.

If you everget the chance to see a top-level tennis match in the flesh you’ll be blown away by the speed of the game, your neck muscles will never get a better work out because it’s non-stop left-right-left-right, it’s brilliant.

The organisers of the French Open have done something really cool, they’ve slowed the play right down for us to super-slow motion. The footage is pretty breathtaking and you get a sense of what it’s like the clay surface is like to play on.

Andy Murray, Nadal, Roger Federer, Jo Wilfired Tsonga and all the big names are here, check it out…
