It's getting to the time of the year when the average tennis fan starts tuning into what's happening. The French Open starts in just over a week, before Wimbledon takes over our screens for two glorious weeks at the end of June/start of July.
So it's heartening to see top of the best players in the world producing tennis of this jaw-dropping quality coming into the clay-court season.
Rafa Nadal and Novak Djokovic met in the quarter-finals of the Italian Open this week and this rally to decide the first set was ridiculous.
Nadal looked to have won the point on several occasions, but as you can tell by Djokovic's reaction - this was something special to win him the first set.
It was a cracking match between the two giants of tennis - with world no. 1 Djokovic coming out on top 7-5, 7-6 (7-4) to reach the semi-final.
