News flash: Rafael Nadal is back.

In his third-round US Open match, the Spaniard hit an incredible, absurd between-the-legs lob, dropped his racket and still managed set up match point against Andrey Kuznetsov.

Take a look.

In his post-match interview, Nadal acknowledged that even he couldn’t believe the miraculous play.

Next up, the two-time US Open champion will take on Lucas Pouille in Sunday’s fourth round.
