its not luck lol. there is a certain way you can hit the ball so it bounces over. it basically volleyed in in a way so that the ball would have back spin, to stop it from bouncing forward. he put enough backspin tho ,that it was able to bounce back over. amazing shot really.

Santoro was awesome and unique, when he played Fed it always provided great stuff, watch the highlights of him vs. Federer Aus Open and US Open

@Menglishita13 look at Nadal's shot at 4:27 in this video: /watch?v=YPf3gZdJNAM&feature=r
elated this was of course a charity match, but the same shot was hit and it was definitely not luck. All the pros can do this but it's not a high percentage shot so they don't try.
Besides, if Nalbandian were just a bit faster -- i'm not saying he isn't fast -- and he could've gotten to the ball as it was over the net he would have had a clean put-a-way.
I LOVE Santoro's unique style, he defeated the best players of the game (17 world#1 from Becker, Edberg, Agassi, Sampras to el maestro Federer). He stayed 2 decades in the ATP top 100, how can some of you say he sucks, I wish I was one of the 100 best in my field one year only!! Give him some credits. Pistol Pete himself gave him his "magician" nickname! Safin at his best (who lost 7 times against him) said "Being told I would play Santoro was being told I was to die." One word for you: RESPECT!

They don't call him the magician for nothing.
