RAFAEL NADAL broke into hysterics when he noticed a journalist had fallen ASLEEP during his press conference at the Australian Open.
Italian reporter Ubaldo Scanagatta, who writes for his own website UBITennis, was caught napping as Nadal discussed his first-round victory over James Duckworth in the Melbourne media centre.
The 69-year-old was clearly hit by the after-effects of jetlag as he eyed the chance to take an impromptu snooze in a post-match presser.
While being asked a question by a US writer, the Spaniard stopped listening and then pulled a hilarious face when he discovered the tired soul.
He joked to the packed room: “It’s not very interesting today!”
When Scanagatta woke up, Nadal conversed with him in Italian. But the journalist from Florence pleaded for sympathy, saying: “A late night, a late night.”

Nadal then added: “I know you closed your eyes to be more focused on what I saying!”
It was Rafa’s first appearance on the circuit since withdrawing from the US Open semi-finals last September with a knee injury. During his layoff he underwent ankle surgery.
The No2 seed enjoyed a comfortable 6-4 6-3 7-5 win on the Rod Laver Arena and will face another Australian Matthew Ebden on Wednesday as he continues his pursuit of a second Australian Open crown.
His first came a decade ago when he beat Roger Federer in a thrilling five-set final.

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.
Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”
Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”
