It's so good to see Leylah qualify for a tournament final again, and especially to see her playing at a very good level again.
Hello Elian! How are things across the pond? I am so happy for Leylah! Such an awesome tournament she’s having! 🇨🇦🍁
@@AshleyKarys All is well across the pond, and yes, I'm glad she's in the final again. And how are things on the other side of the pond?
Yea coz she’s 🔥
She's vanished for the big tournaments the last 3 years
@@sw_elian All is good here, Elian. 🤗 I hope Leylah wins this tourney! It would be such a boost of confidence for her.
What impresses me most about Leylah on the grass is how much her variety is showing. Mixing up her serve so well, moving so effortlessly, taking the ball really early and using every inch of the court. So glad her talent is really showing through.
Leylah was quite effective in neutralizing Madison's serve, but this was a super close match, one extra break of serve was all that separated winner from loser. Madison was the defending champion in Eastbourne, so everything is possible now for Leylah, let's go for the title !
Leylah was really hitting close to the lines. Good play from her.
Leylah is peaking at the right time :D
She should have won US Open instead of that Flopakanu
@@rahulrava619She beat three top 5 players consecutively, and played doubles in between, and 2 slam quarterfinalists before that. Leylah beat a total of 3 Grand Slam winners (Sabalenka future winner), 1 WTA year end final winner, 3 former world number 1s. It probably took a toll on her and probably was simply both physically and mentally exhausted.
Leylah really likes to paint the lines. Her serves are better than the start of the season. Super happy that she made it!
I do agree
Leylah is 3-1 in the finals. Hopefully she bags this one too 🤞🏽
3-2 .. lost wta 500 age 17 in March 2020.
@@DonKJBthis will be her first 500 event final. I dont know which 500 are you talking about??
@@jlzivi5277 She made a 250 final in Acapulco when she was 17 which she lost. I guess they're referring to that. Her record is 3-2 in finals.
Leylah was in the US Open Final in 2021
Kasatkina leads the h2h 2-0
Leylah’s defensive game is really impressive. I really hope she’ll take this one home. Amazing match against a seasoned player on grass, like Keys.
Fernandez's defensive skills were made quite clear throughout the tournament during her incredible run to that US Open final. I too hope she takes this one, but I also want Kasatkina to win, she hasn't won any tournament in a while, either.
LEYLAH THIS IS YOUR MOMENT. YOU GO GIRL!!!!
Knowing Leylah is playing Keys in the semi...honestly i was thinking she will have a very hard time winning. But she proved "i dont think so". Congratulations Leylah🎊👍👏🎾🏆
When she is focused like this, she is tough to beat. Go Leylah! Her serve is vastly improved.
I do agree, she has vastly improved
Leylah Fernandez is on a roll. She has finally improved her game of tennis physically and mentally to be up there with the elites. She has gain more confidence in herself and what it takes to be competitive against tough opponents. This is her 3rd winning streak in a row and the momentum is building up. She is climbing up in the rankings and her fans are excited!!! Keep on keeping on.
Well done Leylah ! !, 🤗🤗, from Quito Ecuador
The tenacity of Leylah Fernandez is really incredible. Canadian tennis player keeps demonstrating a more valiant and unflinching performance than most of the rivals since the beginning of the grass season, progressing into the final first time in a grass tournament. It is definitely a colossal accomplishment on the behalf of Leylah Fernandez.
Playing her best tennis Leylah seems to be able to beat anyone. The issue is when her level drops. If she could get her consistency up, she will be top 10
She is such a good player but kept out of the top 10 by her somewhat erratic serve. This was a really good win, beating a tough opponent...maybe that 2nd major final may just happen one day.
Still, more consistent and humble than that Flopakanu. She should have won us open
...and the haters are quiet today. No stupid comments- very nice!
Leylah… backing you all the way. You’ve had your injuries and tough days, but you never offered excuses, unlike someone else. Full respect for you.
O M G Annie. That was OUTSTANDING. Just a smidge more depth and taking the ball a bit earlier is making ALL the differnce. You made my night!!!
Leylah is back on that form that took her to the US Open final.
Exactly!!!
Let's go Leylah! Vamos! ❤
Congrats, Leylah! Sorry, Madison. I love you both❤❤
What I liked about these two players,nothing cheap or disrespectful, just tough competition!
I scrolled through about 50 comments and literally all of them were about Leylah and how amazing she is. And now here I am, wanting to comment the same thing. I had no idea how dang basic I was for being crazy about Leylah.
Go Fernandez and her demeanor when winning points is different than before
Champion behavior 🙌
Yes, no more fist pumps and premature celebration after each point won.
Yeaaaaaaa Leylah!!!! Feeling all your excitement here at home!!! Excellent playing. Trophy awaits you!!!
One of the players I totally admire. Leylah in a really good nick. Well done!!!
Leylah is such a different player from most. She is vertically challenged but her will and competitive spirit give her the momentum she needs. I don't see her winning the big W, but one never knows with the women
Go Leylah go! She's really tough to beat when her shot is accurate. Always placing her shots on the line and in corners, where they can't be returned. Go Big or go home. Fun to watch.
Fun to watch but also a bit stressful! I think she plays her best when she's the underdog
@@joddle23 I don't have stats, but it seems she wins a good percentage of her three set matches. The setters are also stressful, yes?
Good Leylah ❤❤❤❤
Good effort from Keys. This is the Leylah we know and love to see.
It's your time to shine. Good job Leylah. 👍
Layla & Coco - awesome players
She was brilliant-major level talent.
Beautiful tennis, Fernandez. Congratulations .
Happy for Leylah, who is suited to grass and may go deep in Wimbledon, but Madison Keys is showing good form too
Great play Leylah! That's a very good win.
Man this was tough, I love both of them. Congrats to Leylah and sorry for Maddie.
Que ces deux joueuses sont agréables à voir jouer ❤🎾👌 bravo Leylah
What not to like about these two? It really weird watch them go from clay to grass. On clay, they in a groove. On grass, every strike of the ball look different. So many adjustments. A lot of weekend player, play for 20 year, a little wind and they can't play. Fernandez pretty awesome. She a pretty style of play, some of those improvise winner, impressive.
Congratulations Leylah, great to see you having more success... enjoy the ride!
One of the best games of Leylah! Go for Gold Leylah!
I root for Fernandes in the final!Damn,she is a bit short!But she has a great fighting spirit and uses every inch of her body to win...❤😮❤😅
That is a NASTY drop shot at 3:36
I know, right? So bold and deadly. Love it!
Leylah! So nice to see you winning.
She has been a great competitor since her final appearance in NY 2021, but this year she has stepped up her game by adding way more speed to her strokes, especially forehand. I think she might be a top ten players for some years if staying healthy.
For the moment, I like her game and Paolini's the most.
So happy for Leylah...I like her personality and gamestyle a lot...
Amazing Leylah 👏🙏❤️…congrats👏👏👏. More good luck for the final🙏❤️💐. You can do it again🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️
Goodluck to the finals leylah🙏👏👏👏
Go go go Leylah!👌 Congrats!🌈
Great one Leylah! Superb fighting and playing.
Good for Leylah all that hard work is starting to pay off.
Sooo glad she made it to the final...now it is hard for me whom should I root for....big fan for Daria too...good luck to both :)
🙌 Great to see her thrive! Fighter Leylah, go all the way!
Leylah is another player I respect
Felicidades Leyla, muy bien jugado !!! A ganar esa Final !!!, Amen !!!
l❤Leyla 🎉
Leylah ✨💙🍭
Let’s do this Leyla!! You got this!! 🎉🎉🎉into the Finals!
Congrats Leylah! She knows hownto create points.
Good win Leylah. Particularly liked the winner at 3:50 and celebration.
First set closing point was identical to the match point
3:32 was insane IMO
Shes on fire , go Leylah !
Happy to see Leylah so happy with her win. What I don't understand is how Mystifying Madison, with her talent, doesn't take this in straight sets. So inconsistent!!!
I am very happy Leylah❤
If only Leylah were one inch taller… she probably would have won more titles by now… but then again it’s probably her height that what makes her work for more and gives her that drive to do even better in other aspects of her game. That loss from Kasatkina can hopefully be a learning experience in preparation for Wimbledon.
Leylah, I am in love 🤩
Let’s goooo 🎉
😮❤😮oooohh, Odes-so !!
Great result
Leylah está jugando SÚPER.
She dropped after us open final loss... Coming back hopefully, smiling again
Fernandez is very consistent ! Keys is all over the place !
Awesome!
I struggle to understand why players like Madison Keys and Naomi Osaka who have massive serves and ground strokes are not dominating grass tournaments.
keys literally won this title last year… she isn’t struggling much.
naomi just isn’t used to playing on grass
@aaron.y2k But Keys hasn't done anything significant at Wimbledon, as well as Naomi Osaka even when she was playing her best.
@@aaron.y2k i mean, Leylah never had any significant result on grass before this year. Not having great results before clearly doesn't always mean something.
@@kofipokuantwi-boateng5446 she made the QF last year 🤷
@@nahqiv yes but she takes grass seriously and commits to it, naomi only took grass seriously this year.
Well done Annie!
I still waiting Leylah and Emma fight back,,another game,must a great perfomance...👍👍
Congrats leylah!!!!
It's a shame Fernandez didn't win that US Open final. Would have been a much better 'tennis' champion. Always puts the hard work in, gracious loser, and never complians about broken eyelashes, or strained fingernails.
Yay Leylah... you go girl! ❤ - Wimbledon final: Raducanu vs Fernandez 😜
👍 I agree!
👍✌👏👏👏🙋♀️ bravo Leylah , je vois dans l' énergie de tes déplacements que la force mentale est réinstallée en toi. Bon travail , ne lâche plus jamais ça ! Mes félicitation (d'une vraie coach independante de Paris) GeneAngèle Fa Ma'Ly , de partout 🌎🌍🌏👍✌👉🕊👈 28 juin 2024
Happy for leylah well deserved
Bravo!
Why am I not seeing the full match on WTA TV? Matches that were played after Leylah's match are on there. WHY?
Why the quality of these highlight videos is so poor is beyond me. 1080 get with it!
LEYLAH LET'S GO! She has stiff competition for the final regardless of who makes through the Paolini//Kasakina semifinal, but I believe in her tennis with the performance she displayed today against Madison Keys, a player who isn't easily defeated.
*EDIT: Kasatkina
Go Leylah!
Small in stature but big in heart
Grass is so suite for Fenandez. Of course when she is in form
Wonderful
Let's go Leylah!
Fes.. so good. Con gra
It’s a shame that she can’t beat Fernandez
Leylawn Turfandez 😁🌱
wtf does that mean?
Not sure why Keys kept hitting to Fernandez forehand, which is her strength. Maybe tried to wrong foot, but even then, it's low percentage play for Keys.
My favorite female player is doing well 😊
Slaylah let's go❤💪🙏🏼
I really scared for rybakina bcos she might face Fernandez in 3rd round of Wimbledon 😢
Love rybakina but no doubt I’ll root for Fernandez if that happens
For somebody with a big serve Keys doesn’t hit many aces, doesn’t even look like she ever really tries to. A lot of working serves with dodgy accuracy. Sometimes I just want her to walk up to the line and lay the wood. Play a lot more aggressive and ruthlessly. Great tournament ladies!
when the draw comes out players tend to think of the slam and mentally check out of the event especially those with a chance like Keys. I remember Iga and Bianca played 250s then when the draw came out withdrew
@@deusexmachina9776 Let’s keep it really Keys has a chance to get to the second week but she not winning🤷🏾♂️ the people you are comparing her to at least have one major!
it was really windy today, during the whole match so that's probably why she didn't hit as hard as she normally does
@@jddII i am not saying she will win wimbledon
@@txunami6881 no she does not at all. I was talking about her as whole not just this match. If you look at the ace leaders this year she is not even in the top 60. Puntinseva has more aces than her last I checked! Which doesn’t mean she’s isn’t holding but she has to make it easier on herself if she actually wants to win a major.
Well done Leylah! Keep on chooglin’….
