Tennis star bamboozles opponent with absurd winner

Dutch tennis player Robin Haase continues to amaze with an unthinkable shot he's managed to pull off twice in recent months.

Haase was taking on Fabio Fognini at the China Open on Tuesday when he produced a piece of absolute magic.

Haase came charging in on a Fognini drop shot, and despite the ball being on his backhand side, somehow hit an inside-out forehand flick across court for a winner.

We're not really sure how it's even possible, but he also managed to do it in Halle in June.

On that occasion he left Richard Gasquet fairly gobsmacked as well.

Unfortunately for Haase he couldn't produce any more magic against Fognini, going down 7-6, 6-2.

The absurd winner was one of a number of brilliant shots in China in recent days.
