BBC Berkshire Caption Competition: Week 21

Aah, the gentle thwack of racket on ball, the sweet taste of over-priced strawberries and the infuriating grunting of attention-seeking superstars...the tennis season is in full swing.

With Queen's Club heralding the start of the grass court season (why is it now just the Artois championships? What did Stella do?) and Wimbledon just round the corner, the British people become tennis fans for a few fleeting weeks.

But already this month, Rafael Nadal swept aside all before him, including Roger Federer, to win his third French Open title in a row.

Here's a great photo of Nadal taken at Roland Garros. But what is he doing?

Rafael Nadal sinks to his knees

Our winner this week is EILEEN DOVER with "Nadal soon realised it was a mistake to play tennis on Mars".

BOB MERRISON deserves a mention for "Rafael Nadal admits that his camouflage suit needs a re-think" and JAMES LAMB referred to the Spaniard's magician-like status on court with "Nadal performs his racquet levitation trick in an attempt to intimidate his opponent."

We have a new sporting photo for you to caption every Wednesday, and click below to see your efforts in previous weeks.

Why not bookmark the page so you can easily play every week? Then forward the link to friends, family and colleagues so they can have a go too.
