Ball boy makes amazing catch at Australian Open


It's not just the top-ranking tennis players showing off their skills at the Australian Open -- the quick hands of this ball boy have made him an online hit.


During a match between Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal, Federer hit a long serve and after it was returned by Nadal hit it out of play towards the net.

And that's when 14-year-old Dylan Colaci grabbed the ball (and the spotlight) by plucking it out of the air as it flew towards him.

The speed of his reactions not only earned him a nod of a approval from two of the world's best tennis players, but also a round of applause from the arena.
Speaking of his viral catch Colaci  said: "I didn't have much time to think about it. I just stuck my hand out and the ball just stayed there. I couldn't believe it myself but then I just had to get straight on with the match."
