Awesome footage. That last wave is a beauty.

The Australian TV coverage of the the Melbourne Tennis Open last year introduced images of the tennis players taken with the slo-mo camera.

It was riveting to watch the muscles flexing in arms and legs, and one sequence showed the sweat flying of Nadal - amazing.

It was also interesting to watch how the tennis balls squash when they impact the ground and the way in which tennis racquets bend when coming into contact with the balls.

The slo-mo sequences (cleverly edited and set to music) were almost better than watching the matches!
