The Australian Open men’s semifinal between Jo-Wilfried Tsonga and Rafael Nadal will be 100% pure beef.
Their only meeting was in last year’s U.S. Open. Nadal won that one in straight sets.
Whet your appetite: More pictures after the cut…

Improper nutrition would lead me to do redundant things like writing “Vegan Streaker” on myself — as if the crowd could confuse me as a linesman. When he gets out of jail, can someone get him some beef! […]
