Riki is a 6-year-old monkey who lives in Nikko city in Japan
New Delhi: While the tennis fraternity may consider the Federer-Nadal rivalry the greatest the sport has ever seen, internet has discovered someone who is being touted as the Swiss player's toughest competitor yet.
Meet Riki. The 6-year-old monkey from Japan is setting the internet on fire with his aces and volleys on the tennis court.
Riki has his own YouTube channel which has multiple videos of him practicing his skills on the court. But it's his latest video that really takes the cake.
Dressed in a blue shirt and white tennis shorts, the monkey is ready to beat his competitor with his trusty customised racket.
The video begins with Riki practicing his volleys. After he is done with practice, Riki gets into action and hits every serve that comes his way. He even jumps in the air to hit that ball.

After the match, Riki is seen consoling his owner who sadly was no match to his skills.
While Riki's talent is no doubt impressive, one can't help but notice he is tied to a rope in all his videos.
