Cricket Bangladesh beating Australia in the 2005 world cup. 100/1 on to win

Rafter losing to Ivanisevic. He only made it to Wimbledon in 2001 with the aid of a wildcard entry. The man ranked 125 in the world was actually CRYING while still trying to serve for the match, which he eventually won 9-7 in the fifth set against Aussie Rafter. It wasn't the prettiest of finals, but it capped a quite incredible two weeks for the Croat

Biggest Upset I ever saw..

Was when Puerto Rico beat USA at the 2004 Olympics by 19 points!!

Unbelievable game. Can't believe the USA got beaten by one of their unincorporated territories.

Steven Bradbury becoming the first Aussie to win Winter Olym[pic gold in 2002...1,000m short-yrack speed skating...remember when he was trailing everyone, only to glide by all those in front of him as they fell at the last turn? I can still see the disbelief in his face as he glided past the finish line in first place!

Who could forget (especially on this forum) the big Bear, Tony Ronaldson, hitting the three-ball from the corner whilst being fouled against Croatia in the 1996 Atlanta Olympics. One of the most famous shots and wins in Australian basketball history!
