Out with an arm injury since the start of the season, Jo-Wilfried Tsonga wasn't able to ease his way back at the highly competitive Miami Open. The Frenchman faced Tim Smyczek, who's made a name for itself while Tsonga's been out, having taken Rafael Nadal to five sets at the Australian Open. Smyczek went the distance again on Saturday, and again came up short, 6-4, 3-6, 6-3. That meant Tsonga was able to break out his patented victory celebration, a two-finger salute to himself. His shirt may have been bland—OK, it definitely was—but his post-match moves definitely weren't. Welcome back, Jo.(Photo from AP)
