MORE TENNIS THAN YOU'LL EVER NEED

Fedberg gets ready for Mendl

MELBOURNE – It’s been going on for over a week now, but the sight of Stefan Edberg hitting with Roger Federer still gives goosebumps every time.

Maybe it’s a generational thing. Or a serve-and-volley thing. Or maybe even a Swedish thing. But Lendl, Becker, Chang, Ivanisevic, none of them have nearly the same effect, as cool as it is.

The two headed to closed-up Hisense Arena, with the Rafael Nadal – Grigor Dimitrov match going long on Rod Laver Arena, to warmup for the big quarterfinal encounter against Andy Murray.

Do you love it? Here are some pics. You won’t find these anywhere else on the tennis planet.
