Nadal v. Verdasco 

In terms of technical wizardry, tonight's Aussie Open semi-final is by far the best I have ever seen. Three points to Nadal, one to Verdasco, have been jaw-dropping. Each has come back from a seemingly hopeless position to put extreme spin on the ball and place it somewhere un-returnable. It's like watching a pair of Energizer Bunnies crossed with Terminator.

Nadal will win, and I am very looking forward to his final with Federer.

UPDATE: After 4.5 hours, into a 5th set. A better description of this game would be "amazing table tennis played on a tennis court".
