This is the kind of battle we expect between two top 10 players in form
what’s even scarier is that this isn’t even rybakinas top level :v
@@belladonnagwynett1763 you're absolutely right she should have ended this game in 2 sets , she was frustrated throughout the whole match loosing serves and others Rybakina normally doesn't lose serve once she breaks you
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 2 top players in form? You guys make me laugh, did you watch only the highlights? I think so. Both played absolutely awful. The battle of breaking themselves
@@KcrudeIf you thought this match was horrible stop watching tennis because it was a good quality epic match with lots of suspense in very humid conditions
@@makima3713 ‘good quality match’ 🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 tell me what is a poor standard for you?
I would never think Maria can have such a close match with Rybakina. Maria is a different player since Indian well.
They had a close one at Cancun last year
Seems like she has pegula’s/venus old coach
Cancun last year they had a 3 setter, 2 of the sets were tiebreaks
@@ajollypanda4175i initially thought this man was Pegula's father )))
2x ... on match point, Rybakina just did a little push-poke and almost paid the price for it...
Maria was amazing in this match! But well done calm, cool Rybakina🎉
Rybakina's temperament is exceptional. The way she manages her emotions in such a way that it doesn't even show on her face
Bro Maria is improving so much . I have a feeling we haven’t seen the best from her yet
You think she’ll keep improving? I honestly think this is her at her best, which of course is better than she was playing a few months ago for sure, but maybe I’m wrong and her best will unfold positively with her new coach.
Truth Maria is improving since her changed of coach. Her last year performances was not that impressive. She's been playing like Ash Barty now combination of great defense and attacking unlike her old type of game she just relies on defense and counterpunch approach.
David Witt transformed Pegula from a nobody to a top 3 player so I believe he’ll take Sakkari to at least a slam final
Her muscle…. Need work more her backhand as weapon.
including her mom on the team is good choice
Elena Rybakina calm & convincing, Maria Sakkari really level opponent, I like them both
Rybakinas backhand is effortless beauty
So is her forehand.
Like the both, happy to see Maria a this level, hope she will lift a big trophy sooner. Always impressed by Elena coolness 👌🏼
Was rooting for Maria, this didn't go your way but your game is improving from 2023. Many Congratulations to Rybakina.
calmness at its best. congrats Lena. BRING HOME THE TROPHY🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Sakkari is grtting back to high level tennis. My ice Queen Rybakina reigned supreme out there 🎉
You copied this comment word for word from some dude who posted 5 hours before you. Or you’re the same person with different accounts.
@@dukeon 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
@@dukeon yeah pretty sure shes a bot
Maria performed admirably under pressure, especially when she was sitting on three match points, even though I was almost certain Elena would win. She also put some pressure on Elena, to be honest. These two players had an amazing match.
Bro watched only the highlights 🤣😂🤣
Elena should've closed it in the second set. The match took a lot out of her. Hope she recovers sufficiently.
What a fighter, Elena! When things go awry, she keeps her cool then slowly, patiently gets the job done!
Yea she has a way of reading the game in ways even viewers and pundits cannot.. She just suddenly adjusts and wins! And you are left in amazement
Keep going Maria it was close 💪Bravo Elena🤝 , impossible to hate this girl 😇
Elena is a cool customer. Lost a set after having match points and just walks to the chair as if it's no big deal. How many players today scream at their coaches and break racquets? She's got the ice water for blood temperament of Evert. Plus she is very easy to look at on top of it....that never hurts either.
Why in tarnation would you hate her??
So great to see Sakkari finding her way back. Can wait for her to use her new found self confidence and physicality to win the French Open or least one of the 1000 clay tournaments this year.
She seems more fit than ever!
Damn, Rybakina is so zen that it's downright scary... hahahahahhaa!
HAAA zen my ass. Watch her match against Townsend she literally threw her freaking racquet 💀
She showed a lot of fristration though, even slamming the racket to the ground..... 🤔
@@spillomina you can't take the Rybakina fandom/simps seriously.
@@saksit247 lloren fansboys de iga por lo menos esta en la semifinal 😂
Slavs are cold blooded af
Maria put so much efforts but Elena is a little bit more aggressive 😊😅
Bravo Elena ❤. Hope ur ankle recover quick. Get rest well. Maria has been improving day by day after new coach recruit
The way Elena struts reminds of Safin
You mean Safina?
You are so cool and calm,we love your game,patient lady
Wow so few people in the stands for a great matchup.
4 big serves in the last 4 points... She is not human... 💪💪💪
Damn....How is it possible to be calm like this my Beauty ❤
To see what W had done with and for Maria is crazy. This Maria with this game plan is a really contender for bigger titles! ❤
Rybakina stepped up to the challenge.
The coolest ..win again...
Amazing match! Congratulations to Rybakina. Maria is in upward mode and she will win the tournament anytime now!
такая нежная наша волнушка Елена, рад за тебя и твою команду
The Ice Queen has the best service game in the WTA. She slammed the door on Sakkari in the last game to end it as if to say, 'enough of this!' 😋
No she doesn't. Pliskova has more aces in 2024. Last year it was Garcia with the most aces, she is 2nd after Rybakina but she played so far only 13 matches comparing to 20 of Rybakina. Their matches/aces ratio is 105/13= 8, 128/20=6.5 so Garcia has on average 8 aces per match, Rybakina 6.5. Garcia is already significantly better in terms of aces per match and Sabalenka, Zheng are very close to Rybakina as they have 6 aces per match.
In terms of 1st Srv Pts% they are many better. Osaka, Zheng, Sabalenka. In particular, this tournament doesn't showcases her peak serve ability, if not for her weak serve she would have won easier instead of struggling through 3 sets in 3 out of 4 matches against lower ranked players.
Not really.
A strong service game is not all about aces, but unreturnable balls @@piqo44
@@piqo44A strong service game is not all about aces, but unreturnable balls. And spare us Osaka's name - she is a wannabe Serena with the hard serve and a fraction of the talent.
Even Ashleigh Barty had a better serve than everyone you mentioned.
@@demigod1013 Explain precisely the way you measured that Rybakina's serve is the most unreturnable in whole WTA so that it's clear that is not just your biased feeling and you can prove you bold claim. At Miami even girls outside top 50 had no problem returning her balls. WTA 92 Tauson break Rybakina 5 times, WTA 70 Townsted break her 2 times, Keys break her once, Sakkari break her 3 times. Everyone in every match was able to break her, i have seen much better serving players than Rybakina at Miami this year. Sabalenka had great serve at AO, Swiatek at Doha and Indian Wells, just check their stats and compare with Rybakina's.
Congrats to Elena! Well done! Keep it up! Wish her good luck and success in Miami Open!
What a match❤
This is a really great match. Even Rybakina showed some emotions .... good job Sakkari :)
Damn Maria Sakkari is here to stay in the top 10 now, such an improvement from her previous year
Someone know her shoulder workout routine? Askinh for a friend
Well done, Elena Rybakina! Congrats
Good match and win for Elena!
Congrats to Maria too, it feels like she’s back!
Sakkari is grtting back to high level tennis. My ice Queen Rybakina reigned supreme out there 🎉❤
Congratulations Elena rybakina 🎉
This was a great match..between these young ladies
Елена Рыбакина лучшая и она теперь представляет Казазстан 🇰🇿 кто бы что ни говорил и делает очень много для развития тенниса
In the end you can applaud Elena Rybakina? My God the commentary is just sub standard, you can only applaud both players for such an amazing match, Sakkari saved 4 match points and pushed to third deciding set, she is winning those clutch points more often now as her game is improving very quickly under the new coach.
Elena’s class exceeds that of any player I’ve ever seen. I would never root against her. Keep going, Elena! 🏆
Comparing this match with Iga's match last night is like day and night. Rybakina's so much more exciting to watch than that one dimensional Pole due to her greater variety and weight of shots. How Iga's able to dominate currently has always baffles me,but maybe for not that much longer.
Well, she has been dominating for almost 100 weeks and at the moment Elena is 5000 points behind her.
@@Mary79824 well it'll soon be down to 4000 points if Rybakina wins the title and if Iga fails to defend her French Open title then it'll narrow down to only 2000 points,all things being equal. And of course come Wimbledon,Iga has got a mountain to climb in trying to win her first Wimbledon title!😂
@@eyeofthetiger6002Elena has 1000 points to defend in Madrid and she only got to QF in Wimbledon last year ( just like Iga), then similar amount of points to defend in American swing
@@eyeofthetiger6002don’t get me wrong I like Elena, just don’t understand why while writing about Elena you need to put Iga down.
@@Mary79824because he is hater
really tough game u guys played very well and proud of you mrs. Rybaqueena
Kazakhstan alga! Congratulations Elena!
Maria is vastly improving and I hope David Witt and her team can help her win a GS.
Is that a new coach?
Yes, he worked with Jessica Pegula previously.@@precessionoftheequinoxes3224
@@precessionoftheequinoxes3224 Yeah, they started working together at the beginning of the year. Witt previously coached Pegula and Venus Williams.
Bravooo RYBAKINA.👏👏👏
Great and emotional Match. Congrats Elena and María played in a High Level.
Что вы все Мария да Мария. Елена прекрасная, вот кто заслуживает дифирамбы. Просто Лена позволила Марии поиграть. Да, Маша была достойна!
brawo ELENA WELL DESERVED she is coming for that title.!
Elena seems almost apologetic when she wins, like she has to force a slight smile to satisfy the crowd and perhaps her sponsors.
She wasn't apolohetic though when she slammed that racket on the ground.... 🤔
It almost feels like she has Stockholm syndrome! She is way too nice to everyone! The world doesn't deserve such kindness. It is full of evil people.
Great match ladies
What a game...Pity for Maria but when you're playing with a top player like Rybakina you have to do the perfect match and take advantage of all opportunities. Maria is back 💪💪💪
I love her and her tennis
Queen Rena... Go and win the title. U can do thiss🎉
Elena staying calm through everything is what makes her a champion!
No fist pump. No pointing to her temple. Just the slightest of smiles. Ice Queen Rybakina!
For a server, Rybakina seems to be getting broken quite often these days
Elena Rybakina is god ❤.
Goddess( she is a female)
Well done Elena ! ❤❤❤❤
The highlights is really disappointing…not showing many winners from Rybakina…
That has often been the case with her.
@@KrishnenduKesShe's Russian.
Dumbass what have Russia with this? Anyway she represents Kazakhstan @JohnSmith-jb2jf
Wta doesnt like her 4 some reason
a big different when the player is Coco or Iga, the golden girls of WTA
Congratulations Rybakina
Rybakina needs to up her game significantly.
So do you.
@@ricklee5845 No doubt about that. I haven't played in almost 9 years though.
Rybakina will win the whole thing. It's hard to win 2 tournaments in a row . It's like winning 2 GS tournaments almost 🎉
Vamos Elena LRPM !!!
Good win in the end for Elena against an in form Sakkari but she really needs to work on those forehand dropshots, they are just sitting up perfectly for the opponent. Still, good to see her trying a more expansive game at times.
two amazing athletes!
Another trophy 🏆 for Elena. I want it.
A close match!Sakkari fought bravely against the Ice Queen,but lost in the end!The level of play is high,as should be on that level!😮
Rybakina Became Australian In The Third Set! Great Match Between The Two Ladies. The Comeback From Sakkari In The Tie Break, Then The Punishment From Rybakina At The End👏🏽
Fantastic Battle
Highlights have only 6 Rybakina points and only 2 Rybakina winner. Wtf
Краш Елена 🎉👍👏🔥🇰🇿
Bravo Elena💝
Congrats Elena great win❤....please stop getting a warning on court....last night you got your second warning....you also got a warning playing against Madison Keys!...please dont do it as it really does not suite you at all!!....you a great humble player dont destroy that!!
Elena becomes a „killer robot“ like Iga 😄
I just love yelena, she is amazing.
Леночка алға✊😘👏👍 Я за тебя так молилась, просила Аллаха, спасибо Всевышнему ❤❤❤
После матча Алькараса не спя ждала, у нас в Казахстане под утро😅, я рада за тебя , браво
Rybakina used to have insane traps about 3 years ago. Did she lose some of those muscle?
Rybakina is the most talented player ever
Congrats to Sakkari. She plays wonderful, she can do it even better!
ALERT to Sakkari's coach. Tell him to make sure his assistant on his far left gets enough sleep.
I have not seen Rybakina this upset even in a losing match. I think she was upset because she knows that this title is practically hers to take (with Swiatek and Sabalenka out of this tournament). As a player, it is a lot more frustrating if you lose because you play like crap, compared to losing because the opponent played way better than you. Rybanika's backhand was not working at all today, and she has no feel at the net.
Damn right.
@oneraksakal Normally Elena's volleys are pretty solid. At the moment, it's her health and conditioning which is a problem. She's getting quite prone to injury or fatigue.
Yes, she knows perfectly well that she is tired and far from her best form.
Qazaqstan 🇰🇿🇰🇿🇰🇿
Kajakiston
Elena never smiles at opponents after a victory, what a style! Gredit to Maria, tough match. Elena has got way too many tough players on her plate this time to win Miami final. Still, she so cool and elegant.
Classy in victory and no grunting. No ugly gesticulations, give me more of Rybakina. In my eyes she's any day better than serena gauff sabalenka sharapova or sakkari
You may be on to something there, , but Sakkari improved so
You need to take Serena out of that. She is in a league of her own and everyone knows that.
Lol simp
The little guy put up a heck of a fight but 6 foot tall Elena has the hammer just like Sampras in his prime.
Damn u guys are quick with the edits
I thought Elena Rybakina lost this match 😅
Great match ... but ... both players have their problems with "big points". Maybe the focus gets a little bit down ... or whatever it is ... on the last game Elena finally found her usually good service in this tournament. Anyhow ... both are playing really good at the moment.
Talk about a tough day at the office- for both!
Елена Рыбакина невероятна! Успехов ей.
Рыбакина 🎉❤
I thought Rybakina was supposed to be good at tiebreaks. Every time I see her in a tiebreak this year she loses it
You'd think that with a serve as big as hers, she'd have a stranglehold on tiebreaks, but you're right - she's 1-5 in tiebreaks this year, her only set won against Frech. I don't know if it's nerves or what, but that's something she has to work on if she wants to challenge for number one/more slams.
Iga out. Coco out. Aryna out. Elena better win this whole thing.
Uuuuh, i was so nervous watching the highlights, fearing Rybka might loose 😅😅 so great that she won
Go Rybakina!
Elena ❤
Glückwunsch Akugue 🥎🇩🇪
Where has Anna been this season? Stay healthy and WIN the Championship Elena.🍌
Now,put Rybakina play in 20 hours to not have time to recover. This is something that happened to Iga.
