I remember watching this match live and I thought Serena played amazing and was in the zone. One of Serena's best matches she ever played.
One of the best matches of Serena's career. Didn't miss a 1st serve in the 2nd set, served 87% for the match, 10 aces, no doubles, 38 winners - total demolition.
This is one of the best match Serena played vs a low confidence Hingis. I don't think Serena missed a first serve the entire 2nd set. She would be 99% of her opponent in this Goddess mode.
well, she defeated absolutely everyone on the tour in this kind of form.
Davenport, Monica Seles, Mary Pierce, Justine Henin, Mary Pierce and Martina Hingis have /all/ said that Serena was their least favourite to play because she could take them right out of the match, with ease.
I think Hingis had the confidence. Hingis was simply outplayed. I think Hingis intelligence in the sport actually made the Williams Sisters better because they realized power alone is not enough to dominate the sport.
These are the kind of matches that drove Hingis into retirement. The game was going into a different direction. More power and big serving. Serena destroyed Hingis again in 2002 Miami open 6-4 6-0.
it drove her to drugs too.. enhancement drugs
The depths and pace of serena's serves and ground strokes combined with Hingis's weak serve, made it hard for her to dictate play, which was her only real chance to win... If she wanted to win another major durng this part of a career she would have needed to get extremely fit and stronger and develop better serve.
@@mikeg8375 Her only and last chance to win another Grand Slam was at the 2002 Australian Open. Hingis had 4 championship points in that match. Serena didn't compete at the Australian Open that year. Everyone knows Serena was on another level in 2002 and Serena destroyed and overpowered Hingis couple of times in 2002 which made her decided to retire from the game.
The whole "Venus and Serena drove Hingis out of tennis with their power game" narrative is largely overblown. Firstly, she doesn´t even have a negative record against them. She ist 11-10 against Venus and 6-7 against Serena, and 2-2 in doubles.
Then you might say that the Williamses won more of their later matches, which is kind of true. But actually, Hingis won the last match against Venus (Rome 2006), and famously beat both of them back to back as late as the 2001 Australian Open.
And if you look at other head-to-heads it becomes even more ridiculous. Clijsters for example is 1-2 against Venus and 2-7 against Serena. Henin 6-8 versus Serena and 2-7 versus Venus.
And with all due respect, we might indeed say that Serena´s power game drove Sharapova into retirement (2-20).
@@fundhund62 Hingis could beat them if she had a great day. But, they wont more grand slam matches against her after they learned how to beat her. So they made her into a Wozniaki who could not win a slam once they were around. I think this is the context.
Hingis came onto the scene when the power games of Graf and Seles were toward the end of their careers. Lindsay provided power also, but she was not yet fit. Hingis relied on her genius and all-around game to win titles. With the emergence of the Williams sisters, Hingis could no longer evolve as a singles player. Serena and Venus played her game (groundstrokes, serves, and volleys) but with more power and foot speed.
perfectly said!
In my humble opinion: Yes, Hingis was overpowered by the new Tennisplayers like Serena Williams. But I too think, that she lacked the will to force herself to the gym and get more powerful, too. She was used to rely on her wits and ball-feeling, but with the rise of the powerplayers that wasn't enough anymore. But she wasn't willed to change and put in the hard hours - so she lost.
Wait, but in 2000 supposedly she hit the gym and put on some bulk after losing the 1999 US Open, trying to keep pace with the bigger hitters. They reported she felt the extra weight slowed her down. Just goes to show you can teach technique and sharpen mental toughness. But you can’t teach someone to grow 6 inches and produce athleticism they weren’t naturally gifted with lol
Serena was hitting on all cylinders!👑🎾Bravo!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Serena’s forehand return at 10:34 sounds like gunfire.
A masterclass by Serena
Serena's power is unbelievable.
I just don’t understand why Hingis would not stand a little bit further behind on Serena’s first serve-Serena was hitting absolute scorchers!
Uh, it wouldn't have mattered where she stood, Hingis was out classed and out played by the up and coming GOAT! 😎
Thank you!! More of these, pretty please with sugar on top.
I never liked Hingis, but her genius of the game, I have to applaud. Her mind was like a computer. Hingis could dissect her opponents strengths and weaknesses in a New York minute. However, the Williams sisters learned that coupled with athleticism and power and spelled lights out for Hingis career.
Poor Martina 😢
GOAT Serena had 100% first serve in second set
Thank you so much on getting back at me..your text makes me feel honored and I'm happy to have a fantastic fan like you
@@SerenaWilliams-ih8yy thanks Serena 😍😍😍
Thank you for being a fan,I really appreciate your support
I don't feel sorry for Hingis when she was at the top in late 90s she was bragging and at the 2000 US Open she claimed the William sisters only have 1 grand slam each and she has 5 grand slams. She can eat her words now as both William sisters have surpassed her in grand slam titles won. 7 for Venus and 23 for Serena.
@marcel fu she was always running her mouth, never really passed up a chance to talk trash in her younger days. When she came back In both of her comebacks she was much more humble. Her and her arch rival Venus even played doubles together in world team tennis and it looked like they both enjoyed each other's presence. It's amazing what some maturity can do.
Commentators who love one thing: their voices....extremely getting on my nerves.
Serena was playing like rent was due!
Venus vs Clijster Qf
Serena vs henin R4
Venus vs testud R4 plz
Hingis won slams when graf had serious injuries and seles was someone else after stabbing. She became irrelevant at single slams in 21 st century. Whereas henin upgraded her game and stayed with power hitters
Definitely agree, in 1997 she had no real competition when she won 3 slams that season and even almost winning the French open that year. After 97 she only won 2 more grand slams at the Australian Open. Once player like the William sisters and Davenport came up with big serve and power hitting she was second best and that's why she retired in 2003 at only 22 years old the game was evolving even more around that time.
I would add Capriati to the conversation as well. The Williams Sisters forced Jennifer to get better and Capriati won her final four matches over Hingis after going 0-5 to start her career.
@@codyahurley and won the important ones. Slam finals
@@codyahurley Capriati nearly lost the 2002 Australian final she was lucky to win that one over Hingis. Think Hingis had 4 match points.
Yes. Her contemporary Davenport actually stayed relevant up to 2005 by working to improve her game each year, whereas Hingis’s game stagnated and even deteriorated in some ways. In fairness all the players who peaked in the 90s other than Lindsay and Capriati faded fast in the early 2000s. Pierce managed a decent 2005 and that’s about it.
They need to bring Cyclops back
He said Hingis doesn’t have a net game 😂😂😂😂😂
Rematch of the 1999 Final where Serena burst on the scene and never let up! This was the year Venus beat Serena in the finals and little sis said “never again at the USO” 😂
When Serena power moved is on super her opponents fall short
MH face looks like “oh just get it over with”
Martina Hingis 🔥🔥😎
Inspiring!
Lady set was diabolical
Hingis was a spectator for this match 😂
Hingis❤❤❤
37:51 surely that was out?!
martina,was so nervous, playing serena,she didn't want serena,to get a bagel from serena,
Who would you have rathef dated back then? Thats how i chose who i cheered for
ヒンギスはウィリアムズ姉妹に勝つために相当フィジカルトレーニングを積んだが、なかなか勝てなかった。🥺 でもパワーだけに頼らないヒンギスのテニスは大好き👍✨🎾😃☀️
Her tennis is outdated.
Such an outstanding performance by Serena, she was unstoppable in this match. Wish she won the final that year.
Hingis gave injury excuse but thing was her ego couldn't handle the fact she can't win slams after 1999. Simple as that. In 2003 she would've been owned by henin and clijsters too. So she ran away
Graf broke Hingis mentally in the FO 99 final.
Martina never was the same again.
ok
Hingis, the best ❤❤❤
Are you serious?....the game left Hingis in the rear view mirror.... unable. & unwilling to adapt to it!...
She lost. How is she best?
Serena makes so many errors because her footwork is atrocious. She never hits the same shot, it’s all arm.
such trolling trash.
Sabalenka hits more errors [- today] , while hitting **fewer winners than Serena, per set /per match.
@@adamlarsson3828 there are many professional athletes in different sports that compensate for bad movement or mechanics with talent, power, etc.
It’s just that the serena bandwagon ignores reality.
@@LargecanyondogSerena didn’t have “atrocious “ footwork. Her footwork was on par with her physique. She sometimes looked like she was not willing to move and reached for shots but that is with any of the players. Serenas footwork was actually well above great, you can hear it when she’s moving to make shots-all those squeaks on the hard courts meant she’s moving to make a shot.
@@jobuck879 watch Henin, Hingis and Graff. Their footwork is impeccable for any sport. Serena hits many shots all arm because her body is totally out of position and off balance. It just happens that her arm talent is legendary so she gets away with it. She just bashed people off the court.
Even her coaches quit because she would not practice or get in shape.
Even if she had bad footwork etc she is an awesome player.. haters will hate
serena behave like sabalenka today, it's awful
Magnificent!
Have u ever played a tennis game? It's you against the opponent. Confidence, a bit of anger increases the adrenalin it's a tough sport.
You're a FOOL to EVER speak Serena's name in the same sentence as Sabalenka! 😂🤣😂
Please don't insult poor Aryna!
Serena is a guy HA HA HA
Don't be so rude
No need for that
Imagine being an adult and create account to be a troll on internet, Sad life
IT CALLED GENETICS...
a guy that has a child and is preg yeah bud troll on
