The Men's final of the 2008 Australian Open Tennis Tournament ended on Saturday night with some nail-biting action. The game between the 3rd ranked Novak Djokovic and the 38th ranked Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, was characterized by long rallies and a bitter fight for every point.
Eventually, Djokovic's experience and skill outmatched Tsonga's aggressive game. By winning, Djokovic became the first Serbian man to win a major Grand Slam (the most important tennis events of the year) Title. He also ended the run of Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal, who between them have dominated and won the last eleven Grand Slam Titles.
While we are big fans of Djokovic, the tennis player, we are even bigger fans of Djokovic, the goofball. During the past few tennis tournaments, he has entertained the crowds with his hilarious imitations of some of the most famous tennis players, such as Maria Sharapova and Rafael Nadal. Just in case you have missed it, here is a video of some his most famous imitations.
