Nintendo is giving one gamer a chance to take on Australian Open Champion, and third best tennis player in the world, Novak Djokovic in a game of Wii Tennis. But wait, there's quite a catch.
To be eligible to enter you must be able to travel to Melbourne any day during the first week of the Australian Open, which runs from Jan. 19 through Jan. 23... on your own dime if you don't live in Australia.
If you're OK with that, or live in Oz, than just hit up the link to submit 25 words or less explaining why you should get the chance to play tennis on Wii against the pro.
The good news is that even those who don't get to take on Djokovic can try their Wii Tennis skills out on professionals if they make it to the open. Lacoste's sponsored athletes including Tatiana Golovin and Richard Gasquet, and tennis legend Mats Wilander will be at Lacoste Centre Court, located at Melbourne Central Shot Tower Square on Level 1 to take on challengers.
