HOWZAT! Ball girl delights crowd with classic catch

Year-in, year-out the ball kids at the Australian Open always seem to throw up a memorable moment or two.

2015 has provided us with a young boy getting hit in an extremely uncomfortable spot, and another tempting fate with Rafael Nadal's water bottles, just to name a few.

But we were missing the usual ‘classic catch’ that we often see from the dedicated youngsters.

Until now.

One young ball girl provided us with exactly what we were missing when she stuck out her hand and plucked one out of the air off the racquet of Stan Wawrinka during his semi-final against Novak Djokovic.

The ‘Stanimal’ fired the ball in her direction after serving a fault, and she didn’t miss a beat, moving with ease to take a one-handed catch whilst still on her knees.

After cheers of delight from the Rod Laver Arena crowd, the young girl couldn’t help but crack a cheeky grin.
