My moment of the 2012 Men's singles Australian Open final
Don't remember anymore at which point of the match it happened.
Anyway at a certain moment Nadal hit a forehand down the line that was just out and called out. Probably many people in the crowd didn't hear this call and had seen the ball in, thinking it was a winner, as they started cheering for Nadal. Several guys in Nadal's Box stood up and were clapping (not Nadal's uncle and father though). Nadal's father looked very peed off while making a gesture to the guy standing next to him and clapping. Looked like his gesture meant something like 'Stop clapping, that ball was out!!'. It's always funny to see his frustrated antics when Djokovic is beating his son. I still remember some epic faces from him from Wimbledon.

That was Nadal's uncle - former Barcelona footballer Miguel Angel Nadal. Nicknamed "The Beast of Barcelona"
